Ninth report
We have continued the work carried out, monitoring the blackberry plots and the cocoa plots interspersed with coffee and strengthened the sanitary measures for health care and life in the face of the pandemic.
The project from its inception has set out to strengthen resilience capacities in the community, for this a first task was to work on a diagnosis of natural phenomena that provide more information about the life of the community. This led to an agreement in the Assembly to form its municipal civil protection plan.
A second task consisted of strengthening productive capacities based on two fundamental axes: the promotion of permanent plots for the cultivation of corn, interspersing them with blackberry plants in order to evaluate the advantages offered by a permanent plot that combines the cultivation of basic food products. such as corn and beans with the cultivation of blackberries destined for commercialization as well as the productive diversification in the coffee growing plots through the sowing of cocoa that allow us to improve economic income.
And a third; derived from the health crisis caused by covid 19, carrying out information actions on the pandemic and the measures that should be taken such as healthy distance, continuous hand washing and cleaning. Measures to prevent crowds in public places such as markets and other meeting places.
Concerned and concerned about the education of children, we managed with the support of the Promotora de Servicios para el Desarrollo team the donation of computer equipment and televisions in order to facilitate school and learning activities through virtual systems.
With PRODER colleagues we have worked on evaluating the activities carried out in order to strengthen the actions involving more and more children and young people.
