In March we celebrated a significant milestone in Los Baños del Inca: the graduation of 138 students, who successfully have completed their literacy process through the FOCUS application. This achievement is the result of a joint commitment between the District Municipality of Los Baños del Inca and Dispurse Foundation.
During the year 2023, 150 people started the literacy program in 6 population centers in the district with the use of technology. Through group sessions taught by facilitators, who visited the students' homes, tablets and other teaching resources were used to facilitate learning.
Roxana Callirgos, deputy manager of Social Development of the Municipality of Los Baños del Inca, stated that the alliance with the Dispurse Foundation is a sign of a solid commitment to education and the eradication of illiteracy in the district.
This achievement not only represents the individual success of our students, but also a step forward in our collective commitment to the education and development of Peru. We congratulate all our graduating students and renew our commitment to continue working together to contribute to eradicating illiteracy in the Cajamarca region.
En la Fundación Dispurse, seguimos avanzando en nuestro compromiso con la educación de personas jóvenes y adultas en situación de vulnerabilidad. Nos complace anunciar que hemos concretado la réplica de la exitosa experiencia de las Escuelas Comunitarias Abiertas (ECA) desarrollada en la provincia de Quispicanchi, Cusco, esta vez en el distrito de Los Baños del Inca, en la región Cajamarca.
The event organized by Es Hoy, DVV International and Dispurse Foundation highlighted the joint efforts of companies, municipalities, educational institutions and civil society to close the educational gaps in youth and adults. In a context where 1 in 3 people in Peru have not completed their basic education, this event highlighted the importance of education as a tool for transformation.
In commemoration of International Literacy Day, Dispurse Foundation joined the awareness parade held in the city of Cajamarca. This event brought together students, teachers, organizations and local authorities to highlight the importance of literacy in personal and community development.
