OUR WORK
Flora Tristán is a community of people who took the bold step of migrating to Arequipa in search of prosperity, but they continue to suffer from a lack of self development opportunities. Many children in the community don’t have access to adequate education and most of the mothers in the community did not progress beyond primary education, more than half remain unemployed. Our work is focused on providing the community with the advice necessary for them to overcome obstacles and develop personally and socially.
COMMUNITY
Consulting and training for composting projects and social enterprises which are managed by the community. "
FAMILY
Prevention of COVID-19, family economy, mental health support, hygiene, diet and remote psychologic care. "
EDUCATION
Academic support for children of 6 to 17 years of age through alliances made with other organisations."
1 NO POVERTY
We're constantly advising the families of the community regarding topics such as health and wellbeing, in order to improve their quality of life, reduce their vulnerabilities and increase their resilience to ongoing changes and risks.
3 GOOD HEALTH AND WELL-BEING
Our Family program focuses on promoting the community members' well-being through psychological accompaniment, counseling and violence prevention.
4 QUALITY EDUCATION
Our Education program focuses on complementary education. Helping the children in the community get access to academic support that allows them to strengthen the knowledge gained in their schools, as well as offer complementary workshops through our partner Por un Peru Mejor.
5 GENDER EQUALITY
Our Family and Community programs join together with the objective of stopping all forms of discrimination and violence through counseling and training for the women in the community, as well as legal accompaniment for the most sensitive cases.
8 DECENT WORK AND ECONOMIC GROWTH
In addition to school support, our Education program seeks to encourage adults who have not completed their studies through alliances with Alternative Basic Education Centers (CEBA) to increase their access to fair employment.
10 REDUCED INEQUALITY
We promote inclusion through entrepreneurships led mainly by the mothers of the community, giving them a space for their professional development through training, representation and accompaniment.
11 SUSTAINABLE CITIES AND COMMUNITIES
Through Vida Digna (our - project), we promote the improvement of the homes of the most exposed community members. And with projects such as Flora Circular we focus on educating the community regarding waste management and the increase of green areas in their homes.
This last year has not been easy, however, working together we have been able to overcome all obstacles and families in our community have witnessed it… ANNUAL REPORT 2020
