The “Educating at Home Workshops’’ are training spaces that seek to generate pedagogical and socio-emotional tools for parents to strengthen the process of accompaniment that they give to their children when performing academic homework. During this week we worked on some effective communication exercises to improve coexistence within the family and maintain an environment conducive to learning and sharing experiences.
The nutritional workshops are part of the intervention axis of the Food Security project, which seeks to improve the eating habits of the beneficiaries and their families through an educational and pedagogical process that includes a variety of healthy menus, using quality products at a low cost.
The beneficiaries of the Higher Education program at the Lipaya Headquarters are dressed in blue, this color is the new symbol of their role as society game-changers. These young people work with and for their community, supporting different activities of the Foundation. By becoming aware of the importance of their role and participation in society, our leaders will act as social agents that seek and promote the transformation of the reality of their community.
Every Saturday at the Mi Ciudad Con Vida Foundation we promote different recreational activities where children and young people strengthen their social and emotional skills. In the psycho-affective project through art, children express how they live their emotions, as well this is a space for formative dialogue where they learn to identify and manage their different emotions.
In the Nutritional Care Center we work to improve the eating habits of our children; this week we highlighted the importance of learning to choose a healthy menu, which needs to be balanced, complementary, and sufficient, taking into account the different food groups.
The organizers of the Homemade Gardens Projects and the Environmental Guardians begin to organize in the facilities of the Foundation an area that will be used as a workshop classroom to those beneficiaries who do not have space available at home. Now they can also be part of this project and take care of their plants in the Foundation. In this way, the possibilities for children to carry out the activities of this project have been expanded.
On Saturday, April 30, at the Lipaya Headquarters, we celebrated Children’s Day with different activities and a pleasant breakfast. We remembered the importance of this day highlighting the rights of children such as the right to life, education, recreation, a family, protection etc.
This week we joined the celebration of Children’s Day, promoting the right to food with a healthy menu and different recreational activities. Today, as always, we highlighted the importance of consuming healthy foods to maintain our physical and mental health.
After almost two years of pandemic and lock down, on Saturday, April 23, the official entrance was made with a warm welcome to the beneficiaries of the foundation. We received our kids with a pleasant breakfast, activities, games, dances, and songs. Together we received this new period with hope. It’s a pleasure to have them back at the venue.
This year we resumed the project of Homemade Gardens to create environmental awareness in the children and young people of the community, forming them as Environmental Guardians. On Tuesday, April 5, together with Professor José Camilo, we visited the families to check the plants that survived last year. We investigated the conditions of the space for the projects of this new year, and we also invited families to continue participating in these types of activities.
