This project provides comprehensive care in the area of education, nutrition and health to 165 out-of-school children and adolescents in two alternative schools located in the Petare neighborhood, in the midst of a pandemic that has worsened their socioeconomic situation.
Challenge
In Venezuela, during the pandemic, about 1 million children dropped out of school, and a million more are at risk of taking the same path. The community of Petare is facing in the middle of a pandemic, the challenge of reintegrating children and adolescents of school age to the regular school system with the necessary skills.
Long-Term Impact
What we seek with our actions is for these children and adolescents to obtain skills and abilities that allow them to achieve a complete training, inserting themselves into the formal educational system, helping to reduce the rate of out-of-school children in Venezuela.
