This is a ‘cultural integration’ project for children and foreign families, with particular reference to the Ecuadorian community present in the city of Genoa. The Butterfly Foundation, thanks to the support of WESTERN UNION FSI, contributed to the creation of the following modules in the city of Genoa in order to support non-EU citizens living in the city, particularly those from Ecuador, with 10/12 classes for a total of around 300 students:
Module 1 – Workshops in local secondary schools
- Theatre workshops
- Scholastic and professional guidance
- Linguistic and literary workshops
Module 2 – Opening of the office for the “”Associazione Ecuadoriana di solidarietà””
At the town hall of Genoa, an information office named “El Arte del Encuentro” will operate around 41 hours a week. Around 500 Ecuadorian citizens living in Genoa will directly benefit from this service.”
A video, having the subject of the kids living in the streets of Quito, Ecuador, has been produced by Butterfly foundation who supported, with a small contribution, the Laura Viçuna guest house, dedicated to the accommodation of violated young girls of Quito.
