School gardens for a sustainable future of families in the Peruvian forest

, , , , ,

In rural areas in Peru, this project aims to strengthen the educational, social and agricultural skills of students through community gardens as a pedagogical tool to overcome high levels of malnutrition and anemia that affect boys and girls. 

It also seeks to improve educational quality and school absenteeism by engaging kids and families by engaging their socioeconomic reality to educational outcomes. 

The project not only will impact the academic training of children, but will also contribute to sustainability, food security and the environment protection of this rural area in the Peruvian forest
