What is the project about and how is the project materialized

1. What is the project about and how is the project materialized

The project I want to launch is based on the educational area; it is called “Educación para todos”. The main aim is to provide education to the jungle community as they do not have enough resources to attend school.

It will be a Non Governmental Organization starting off with teachers who volunteer and do not earn any money for being in the jungle. It is related to providing help without waiting for any economic reward

1. What is the background of the project and the problem that tries to solve

Teoria is a small village in the jungle where levels of education are very low compared to the rest of the country. This is due to the way of life of the tribe; they work the land and do not take care of the children by taking them to school.

The Peruvian government established a policy in which they invest money in the city to provide the community a proper education. The problem was that they did not provide qualified teachers; they just started to build a school. This is due to the necessity of the government to satisfy the Peruvian population because of some political problems.

The problem that the NGO tries to solve is the lack of educational resources to provide a good level of education to this tribe as they have the necessary installations to start to build a new society in Teoria.

1. What problems could or will it solve in the future

The main problem the project tries to solve is the illiteracy of the jungle community. Other problem that will be helped is the ability of the community to speak Spanish and the ability to communicate with the rest of the people in the country. Nowadays they only know how to speak their mother tongue which is not useful for communicating as it is an indigenous language.

1. What historical problems could have been solved with this type of project solution

The historical problems that could have been solved are few. First of all, this type of project could have helped the integration of indigenous people into the Peruvian society, as they are seen as an independent society.

Another problem that could have been solved is the ability of the tribe to sell their products and enter in the national market as they know how to work the land in a cheaper way because they do not need to use expensive technology. Without this problem they will be part of the society and will earn money to improve their social status.

The illiteracy of the tribe has always been a large problem to solve, as it is the principal factor in developing the community. Once developed, they would have been able to communicate the rest of the people and so to be able to understand their culture and the developed world.

1. What is the magnitude of the problems that would continue to exist without this type of solution

The problem of illiteracy is quite important due limitations in daily life in the future.

If the community does not have a proper level of education, they do not find good job opportunities and they will be working in agricultural tasks their whole life. Nowadays they cannot have any job in the city as they do not know how to speak Spanish and how to do the tasks.

The lack of integrity will be even bigger in the future for the young community as they will need to go to the cities to find a job or just to go to college. This lack of integrity leads to not understanding the society, the market or even the local currency. I think one of the worst problems in today’s society is the illiteracy which has the consequence of the lack of integration in the real world.
