Descrição
We are trying to help children from Huari and its communities to improve their English skills, along with the local school's teachers. We are trying to get them a broader view of education and the world around them, trying to focus on preventing the chronic anemia, since it affects almost a half of the children here, we also work with the local mothers by giving them information about healthy eating, compost production for their parcels, talk to them about global warming and as many information that could help develop their consciousness about health and ecology. People here live in a very natural environment but lack very important knowledge. The local government lacks this knowledge too since Peru is full of corruption and this small town is not the exception there are many things lacking in the area.
The name of the district is Huari, the town name is Huacachi, this place is in the middle of the country and is one of the most poverty struck regions of Peru. We are trying to develop eco-tourism since this place has many beautiful lagoons and archeological sites with rupestrian paintings and everybody is working on the land as farmers.
It is a must for the students to learn English in their local school, but since there is no one to practice they don't see the need for them to learn it, and since people here speak Quechua as their native language and elders don't even speak Spanish in most cases this would be an excellent opportunity to for them to practice.
I believe is a unique opportunity to encounter the real Peru and live with a community barely exposed to the outside world.
We have had more than common situations with our page and programs since the Covid pandemic started. We almost closed definitely all our NGO’s programs as well as our social media community manager had to fly back home and our volunteers stopped coming. Thankfully we started again with the help of an online volunteer, Abhay, and we are reopening our program in the town of Huacachi, we offer an experience-based volunteer program with the possibility of getting a certification of completion by the NGO and local school while you fully immerse yourself in an unexplored territory for most tourists or backpackers. Live together with a Peruvian highland family and get to know incredible people, amazing places with breathtaking views, and incredible stories, and cook with local ingredients from the Andes with a uniquely traditional flavor.
Knowledge of the basic Spanish language is preferable, and if you ever like to come back to Perú we will be waiting for you with our open hearts. Once again we deeply apologize for missing your message and skills.
We could give the volunteers and certificate from the school´s principal office and the NGO which could help in their career experience; volunteers can stay either at a local hotel or with a local family. Learn how to speak Quechua and cook traditional Andean dishes like the delicious Pachamanca.
For now, we can only hold up 4 volunteers at a time.
There are only 3-4 hours of classes but they can be within the school hours 7:45 am-1:00 pm.
There are many families, in which one can learn cooking, adobe typical construction, knitting, and traditional agriculture techniques.
We can offer a simple breakfast like oatmeal and fruit, tea or coffee.

We stayed only one week but we loved being around and we really enjoyed this peaceful village! Almost no cars, everybody knows each others, no internet except if you get a bitel chip.
We've been so well welcomed and integrated, thanks to Walter, Manuela and their 2 children Daniel and Diana, Jeronimo, Albina… read more
