Después de un proceso de evaluación de los postulantes, el comité de selección conformado por un jurado con representantes de DREAM Project y Cigar Country ha elegido sus ganadores del primer Premio DREAM Montessori.

The DREAM Project and Cigar Country have partnered to promote a sustainable early learning system in the Dominican Republic, based on the Montessori Method and best practices in early childhood care and education. With this partnership, the DREAM Montessori Prize arises, which features two prizes: a first place will receive the provision of equipment, furniture, materials and support and training for two years to install a Montessori classroom; a second place will receive a classroom library, which includes custom shelves and a variety of dynamic, age-appropriate children's books.
