About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Bolivia has become a country of origin, transit and destination of victims of human trafficking and sexual exploitation, especially children and adolescents. For 15 years Munasim Kullakita Foundation aims to promote actions of protection and temporary assistance to victims through the implementation of a temporary protection home, through social, legal, medical, psychological, nutritional, social and educational assistance services. The activities to be developed in this project are: a) Contact with children and adolescents in situations of sexual exploitation in areas of prostitution in the cities of La Paz and El Alto. b) Recreational workshops and socio-educational activities for child and adolescent victims, c) Periodic visits to families to encourage and strengthen the active and conscious participation of children and adolescents in their families and d) Training in rights for children, adolescents and families in high vulnerability.

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
