The project was based on strengthening the citizenship skills of the students of an Educational Institution in Cúcuta, Norte de Santander, in which, through a diagnosis, serious shortcomings were detected in such aspects, and more specifically in aspects of coexistence, tolerance and respect for the opinion, beliefs and views of the people around them.Various activities were designed and applied to improve these aspects, of which it should be mentioned that they were highly effective, given the strategies applied, in which self-esteem, reflection and the visualisation of each student's own defects and virtues were taken into account. Direct observation was proposed, with a qualitative focus that allowed us to establish that the students, among other things, do not appropriate the problems of their environment and find it difficult to recognise their shortcomings in terms of coexistence and respect for the ideas and beliefs of others. The instruments used to collect the information were the pedagogical diary and the diagnostic grid. Through the game called "La Vuelta a Colombia", it was observed that citizenship skills were strengthened in fifth grade students where they proposed prompt and affective solutions. The results were socialized to the educational community and the project was left immersed in an institutional improvement plan which will be implemented in all areas, courses and locations of the educational institution.
