In this volume, Esferas brings together five different academic articles on community outreach projects carried out in Ecuador. These articles are aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals SDG 4 Quality Education, and SDG 16 Promote just, peaceful and inclusive societies. The community outreach projects are developed by professors, students and collaborators from different institutions, including Universidad San Francisco de Quito USFQ, Escuela Fray Jodoco Ricke and Universidad Católica de Cuenca.

Esferas presents the work methodologies applied for the implementation of the projects and the results they have had so far. The objective of this monographic series is to raise awareness of the great work being done for the benefit of the country and to motivate people to participate in or create similar high-impact projects.
