One of the main points was the possibility of collaborating on the digitization and preservation of the province’s historical records through FamilySearch. This initiative aims to improve access to Tucumán’s history and genealogy while ensuring the conservation of the region’s valuable documented heritage.
Another key highlight was the Tucumán government’s recognition of the Church’s humanitarian efforts. In December 2024, the Church made a significant donation to the province’s health care system, including a CT scanner and an endoscopy tower for the Mercedes Serrano Polyclinic in Tafí Viejo. In this regard, officials explored the possibility of future collaborations to strengthen the provincial health care system.
