Abstract (English): Biotechnological processes have accompanied humanity since the beginning of civilization; proof of this is the use of yeasts for the preparation of bread, wine and beer. Biotechnology has also been fundamental in the improvement of plants and animals that are part of the human diet; and in vitro culture techniques have accelerated the processes for obtaining better crops for our growing population. The project "Biotechnology for everyone: Socialization of concepts, applications and benefits" socializes the concepts, applications and benefits of biotechnology among educators, opinion-forming groups, and producers in the agricultural and food sectors. The project has successfully used new technologies to reach its goals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): Experiencia práctica: socialización de conceptos, aplicaciones y beneficios de la biotecnología en Costa Rica. Los procesos biotecnológicos han acompañado a la humanidad desde el inicio de la civilización; prueba de esto es el uso de levaduras para preparar pan, vino y cerveza. La biotecnología también ha sido fundamental en el mejo ramiento de plantas y animales que son parte de la dieta humana; y las técnicas de cultivo in vitro han acelerado el proceso de obtener mejores cultivos para nuestra creciente población. El proyecto "Biotecnología para todos: socialización de conceptos, aplicaciones y beneficios" socializa los conceptos, aplicaciones y beneficios de la biotecnología entre educadores, grupos formadores de opinión, y productores de los sectores de agricultura y alimentos. El proyecto ha utilizado exitosamente nuevas tecnologías para lograr sus objetivos. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
