An interview design was used with a treatment group that received training and a control group, both evaluated after the intervention using structured surveys administered to a total of 28 participants. The results demonstrate that the training significantly increased the understanding of UBI, with an improvement in the identification of its essential characteristic: unconditionality. The trained group also showed a more critical and realistic view of the fiscal challenges, an aspect that is the main concern of the respondents. Although a slight inclination towards favorable positions was observed, doubts persist about its fiscal viability and its labor effects. The work concludes that economic education is a relevant tool to foster an informed public debate on innovative redistributive policies in the Argentine context. Universidad Nacional del Comahue.

A lo largo del cursado, los estudiantes llevaron adelante proyectos de investigación–servicio en los que articularon sus saberes de inglés con los contenidos propios de sus carreras y con la resolución de problemáticas reales de la comunidad. El proceso incluyó la lectura y el análisis de textos académicos en inglés para la elaboración del marco teórico, la selección de un problema relevante, el diseño e implementación de una metodología de investigación, y la comparación de resultados con los aportes de autores especializados. Cada proyecto culminó con la redacción de un informe final en formato de paper, presentado en español e inglés, siguiendo una plantilla estandarizada. Los autores
