Matera Presentation - Acting "Each one of us, as soon as we exist, is required to discover what is the sphere in which our action can be articulated with the cause of man. To live, in the full sense of the word, is not to limit ourselves to existing , but to dispose of oneself to be at the service of others. Living is, ultimately, and very especially in medicine, living for the sick. As long as we do not take responsibility for our choice, rather than living, we will feel lived; rather than acting. , we will experience ourselves acted and carried. " Our history The Matera Foundation was established on May 10, 1972 by Professor Dr. Raúl F. Matera. Since its inception, it developed activities in the field of culture and art in its various manifestations, particularly encouraging all young expressions of creative talent. Our Objectives Foundations as privately managed institutions, constitute significant organizations for social solidarity, cultural evolution and scientific progress. The increasing complexity of society's problems means that public powers need to be complemented in their work by the activity of foundations like ours. Our objectives are: to promote and stimulate pure and applied Research in Medical and Social Sciences, as well as to promote cultural dissemination and all artistic manifestations of genuine Argentine creators. © 1998/2017 Copyright Fundación Matera - All Rights Reserved Design and Hosting: Drwebservicios E-mail: info@matera.org.ar Uruguay 1243 1st Dept. 4th Capital Republic Argentina Tel / Fax (54-11) 4815-1748 / 4812-2475
