Commemoration of International Women’s Day
In commemoration of International Women’s Day, we held a fun and interactive activity to promote women’s rights. Through games, children were able to highlight the strengths of the girls in their group and recognize the importance of women in different social contexts. With initiatives like this, we aim to build a more equitable and inclusive society for all.

From the Educating at Home project, implemented in Soledad, we taught parents how to organize study time at home, through different strategies, such as the pomodoro technique and the Kamban method, the activity was developed in a group way exemplifying with everyday life situations that allowed enriching the process.
Let’s learn to choose the foods we consume on a daily basis.
This time we did it through a game where the children had to choose the healthiest foods and put together a menu, using high relief sheets with food and life-size portions.
By developing these activities, we want the children at the Healthy Nutrition Center to be able to identify the foods that should be consumed and how to distribute them in adequate quantities in order to stay healthy”.
