    Activities Timeline

    Strategic Objectives

    1. Education based on the Mayan Q’eqchi’ culture : Creating an educational proposal based on the Mayan Q’eqchi’ culture, which will enable the implementation of systematic education at the primary, middle school program, and will correspond to our vision of “integral development” within our cultural knowledge and values, as well as promote the Mayan Q’eqchi’ identity.

    2. Productive community-based economy : Implementing rural and local productive development projects of sustainable nature with men’s and women’s groups which will help them bring higher income to their families and create higher living standards. The projects will secure their participation in education, healthcare, politics and culture.

    3. Political participation and education : Organizing and training community leaders and directors for political involvement and leadership, in order to construct a just and humane society, with identity and dignity.

    4. Strengthening the Maya Q’eqchi’ culture : Promoting and strengthening the value and knowledge of the Maya Q’eqchi’ culture, to contribute to personal development, securing the cultural practice as a sociocultural development.
