Asociación En Beneficio de Mujeres Indígenas

 

A group of women from the village of Chocantariy came together and formed an association in order to improve their living condition. Their first project is a small bakery in the village where they offer fresh bread to the community and to the school.

 

And with the benefits from the bakery, they will start a free and self-financed daycare center to take care of the children of the working parents.

 

In doing so, they also offer job opportunity to the women which will raise their social status in a male-dominated society and encourage the others to participate in social development activities.

 

A small library with internet is also in the future plan.
