One, Two… Tree! Summer Camp Zinacantán 2019

Living and volunteering in Diriamba was an incredible and unique experience. I learnt so much in just one month from the places I went, things I did and, more than anything, the people I met.

Education day 2020!

Under the slogan chosen for 2020 “learning for people, planet, prosperity and peace”, we recall today the role of education as a fundamental human right, the lack of which would significantly affect the implementation of the other rights recognized by the UN assembly.
