The Environmental Guardians group led an inspiring educational campaign in the Lipaya neighborhood community, delivering a message about the importance of preserving and protecting water as a vital resource. Regardless of their age, the teenagers went from house to house to engage in conversations with their neighbors, hoping to have a significant impact on the environmental protection of this community. Thank you very much, Guardians!
Alliances for social strengthening
This week, students and teachers from the University of the Coast accompanied us to begin a research project on the analysis of executive functions and social behavior in children aged 6 to 12. This type of research allows us to identify possible psychosocial risks and valuable information for the creation of strategies to strengthen the social development of our beneficiaries and their families.
