The leadership of young people has deep roots in our history. They were precisely the ones that rebelled against Spanish colonialism, and personalities such as Carlos Manuel de Cespedes, Ignacio Agramonte and José Martí illuminated and taught the “Centennial Generation” headed by Fidel Castro to fight for the ideas of independence and sovereignty. This same battle is the one that our youth faces nowadays, but in order to achieve students' protagonism. A prospective transversal study in “Lidia Doce Sánchez” Polytechnic Institute of Nursing was carried out during the course 2001-2002. The authors of this work made use of observations to the students' curricular and extracurricular activities. Besides, interviews to the students' leaders were also helpful. The research group included the 70 students registered in the school, and from this a sample of 60 students of the three years was selected, 23 coursing the first year, 25 the second year and 12 the third. The data obtained was processed with a calculator CEDAR CD-337 and summarized in statistical charts. Variables as school attendance and participation in the different activities, such as school meetings, political information, audiovisual programs and others were used. Higher levels of participation and quality were achieved mainly in activities related to the audiovisual programs, integral assemblies and other activities
