Project report in English
Dear friend, we want to tell you that we have been firmly committed to the development of our children in the context of the Covid-19 virus emergency, so we will tell you about some of the actions that we have been carrying out:
During the COVID-19 quarantine, we have implemented different actions to support the families of the 950 children who are beneficiaries of the institutional modality in the municipality of Pivijay, Colombia. This remote support has focused on:
• Weekly phone calls to the families of the children by the educational agents in order to address 14 care and upbringing practices focused on promoting the integral development of early childhood.
• Monitoring the health status of children by health and nutrition professionals. From this line, one (1) ration to prepare or nutritional packet has been delivered monthly to each family, in order to ensure the feeding of the kids.
• Psychosocial care for families prioritized for identified risk situations.
In this process, we have managed to promote comprehensive development in early childhood, directly involving families, highlighting the leading role they have in the interactions of children, as well as the importance of the family as the first protective environment.
Significant Experience
At the Mariposas de Colores Child Development Center, the strategy called “Las Mañanas con Adonilda” has been implemented in order to promote different and creative communication with children. It consists of the creation of a weekly video where the educational agent addresses some weekly themes or challenges for families, creatively using recyclable material, adapted to the age of the kids.
The activities carried out by the teacher in the video have been replicated by the families, resulting in:
• Families motivated to set the spaces in the home according to the challenges and practices, responding to the planned pedagogical intentions.
• The rapprochement between the educational agent, families, and children has been strengthened.
• Strong family ties are evident.
• The level of commitment and receptivity on the part of the families in relation to the accompaniment process has increased satisfactorily.
• Recursive and creative families, using different elements and materials available in their home to carry out the weekly challenges that are promoted through the video.
Thank you dear friend for supporting the development and care of our 950 children who are in a vulnerable state! We value your concern and your help in these times of crisis.
Remember that on July 15 - 9:00 am ET GlobalGiving has prepared a bonus day for donations over $ 100 USD. If you want to participate in this #JulyBonusDay we thank you very much in advance.
