Commitment
We are actively involved and participate within the communities.
Sustainability
We develop programs that generate installed capacity in the communities.
Closeness
We work with children as individuals, considering each case as unique and particular.
At Voy con Vos we work with communities of rural areas in the Province of Chaco.
Since 2007 we develop our programs in the region of Tres Isletas (220km northeast of Resistencia, the Province´s Capital City), and as of 2018 we expanded our impact to the region of El Impenetrable (400kms from the Capital).
Dispersed populations suffer from the absence of basic services, including an inclusive, quality, close and affordable education, for low-income families living there.
Our commitment to the rural communities of Chaco arises from observing the difficulties that exist around access to education, and the quality of their learning. The greater distances and lack of resources evident in rural areas result in higher absence rates and lower school exit levels (compared to urban areas).
It has one of the highest rates of households with Unsatisfied Basic Needs in rural areas: 31.4%
It is the province with the highest percentage of out-of-school children at the initial level: 8.8%
The illiteracy rate is the highest in the entire country: 5.5%
In the rural area of the country, only 1 in 4 students who finish primary school will enroll in high school.
In rural primary schools there is twice as much repetition and abandonment than in urban ones.
