📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
This project takes place in a “conventillo” in the neighborhood of La Boca. There they receive “merienda” (milk and cookies) and dinner. They also receive school support when enough volunteers can attend them. Community context La Boca is one of the most touristic neighborhoods of Buenos Aires, despite this, it's one of the most vulnerable areas of the city. It was one of the richest areas until a big epidemic disease. Most of the people moved to the north of the city and this place was taken by the poorest people and mid class. There are “conventillos”, which are houses with many rooms inhabited by different families; the conditions of most of them are quite inefficient. It was a European migrant area in the beginning, nowadays immigrants fromParaguay, Bolivia, chileneans and others live there. It is amixture of colors, social classes and economical conditions.
Aims of the project To accompany children in their grow-up process and be a protagonist of their own life.
💼 What the programme involves
Volunteers will work together with another volunteer in a pedagogical duo; they provide school support to kids as one of the most important activities. These children don’t have the support from their families and we ask volunteers to help them to study and to focus on these issues. Volunteers will have weekly meetings to discuss various topics in order to understand and complement their social intervention as volunteers. Besides, we aim to provide them with a complete social, historical, political and economic background. There will be solidarity activities planned for all the volunteers to have common inter-exchanges, like festivals, workshops in schools, etc.
