Dear supporters,
With 2022 coming to an end, we want to thank you for supporting our project Talleres this year. "Talleres" (workshops) offers young people the opportunity to acquire vocational skills in different workshops, ranging from sewing to cabinetmaking.
We are proud of all the good news we received in 2022 about our “Talleres” project. After a long break due to COVID-19, classes could resume from February onwards. The construction of the new Talleres school building is about to be finalised. Particularly, we are proud of the 16 students that successfully completed their program at Talleres and obtained their relevant vocational qualifications!
Meet our Talleres Team
If you’d like to meet our local team at Talleres in Honduras, you can find introductions from our workshop instructors here, on our Instagram or Facebook account. You’ll meet, for instance, Lilian Ondina Ponce who is our sewing instructor. Or Emilson López who is the welding instructor. Find out more about their story and their motivation to work with PEN PAPER PEACE on our Social Media.
Honduran Independence Day
On September 15th 2022, Honduras celebrated 201years of independence from Spanish colonial force. To mark this occasion, we provide a digital excursion on our Global Learning platform on Honduran history, society, and the Honduran struggle for independence. If you’d like to learn more about the history of colonised as well as self-determined Honduras, check out our Global Learning digital excursion on Honduras. The material is available only in German.
