Hello again!
Thank you for continuing to be part of this effort to provide better spaces for the development of indigenous children in Chiapas. Over the last few months, we have supported more than 260 children across three of the city's markets.
Some of the key activities we have facilitated involve reflecting on how to improve their living environments and exploring the proposals they—as children—have for building a better society: one that is safer, more equitable, and offers greater opportunities.
To this end, we use theater as a tool for artistic, creative, and playful expression—a space where children can express themselves without judgment, share their experiences, and work toward building a better society.
Here is a video showing the puppet-making process and the presentation of their work: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1E99TpRgTD/
Thank you for continuing to stand up for children! Together, we can keep building safe spaces for the children of Chiapas.
