Education
Our Environmental Education programs empower children to learn about and care for the natural world. Through hands-on activities and creative exploration, they develop a deep connection with the environment, inspiring them to make a positive impact.
GOALS
Educate and motivate students and teachers for the development of personal and professional skills
Develop transversal educational projects for academic strengthening and promotion of soft skills for learning in 3 district educational institutions of the town of Minca for an average of 480 elementary and high school students.
Offer vocational training and hands-on experiences with an emphasis on tourism, English, sustainable development, agroecology, and related trades, for students ages 6-11.
Develop monthly meetings with teachers for reflection and analysis on the use of active methodologies.
Provide psycho-orientation to students from institutions for prevention and well-being
WHY?
Children in rural areas are behind in their education due to the government's decision of not prioritizing these marginalized territories. They also suffer from domestic relationships like poverty and violence. Therefore it’s important to create an open space for them, allowing them to be children. Investing in their education is investing in the future of our plane.
