Project Report | Jun 3, 2022
Canal Sonador

By Robbie Middleton | Padrinos Department

This past year Nuestros Ahijados and The GOD’S CHILD Project have been looking into ways we can support our children with their education whilst the schools in Guatemala remain closed through governmental decree. We wanted to create long-term solutions to provide for any outcome that may occur, looking into ways that we could help our children not only to catch up what they had missed out over the past two years but also to allow them to flourish moving forward.

One of the solutions we found was the creation of our new Canal Soñador (The Dreamer Channel). Canal Soñador is a new project which aims to educate children all over Guatemala in a fun, innovative form whilst making sure that it keeps to the Guatemalan National Curriculum.

Our three teachers will work alongside our videographer to create educational videos to teach all aspects of the Guatemalan National Curriculum to our children in the Project as well as making it freely available for any child in Guatemala who has the need for extra support or lessons taught in a fun and interesting way.

The project is currently in its first phase of development, starting with our technical team who have begun to film classes. For this our teachers began planning out the lessons, finding or creating props and costumes and designing a film set.

The filming is done in a professional setting with an audio-visual team who are currently in the process of editing all the videos to make them dynamic and modern.

The objective is to create a platform where children and youths can have access to the content, watch it live or catch up whenever they are able to work. We aim to create a virtual library of different classes for different subjects and age ranges. The videos will be uploaded into an open-access cloud so that anyone can benefit from them, regardless of whether they are part of our Project or not.

In the future we hope to have an intranet so that children can message with doubts, comments or simply to interact with teachers to be able to complete their work. We are extremely excited about the work that has already been done and the potential that this project can have. We believe that we will be at the forefront of Guatemalan education post-COVID.

The GOD’S CHILD Project has been working for 30 years to break the chains of poverty through education, housing, nutrition and healthcare. Please click the link below to donate to support us in our ongoing mission.
