2021: IN THE MIDDLE OF RESILIENCE AND ECONOMIC REACTIVATION

The COVID-19 pandemic has shown that global efforts to meet the Sustainable Development Goals have been insufficient and has unleashed an unprecedented crisis that further hinders the progress of countries and affects the poorest and most vulnerable people in the world to a greater extent. The health emergency has exposed and deepened inequalities, with impacts that are much more exacerbated among girls and women.

At Juanfe we are taking action, we are committed to continuing to BREAK CYCLES OF INTERGENERATIONAL POVERTY in adolescent mothers who live in situations of poverty, extreme poverty, vulnerability, risk, and exclusion.

At the beginning of the year, we faced a great challenge related to the reconstruction of labor markets, which implied low productivity, high informality, income inequality, and few decent work opportunities, affecting the achievement and job stability of many of our adolescent mothers.

However, the economic reactivation has been a great opportunity to increase the competitiveness of our adolescent mothers in the labor market.

Finally, we feel proud to achieve the positioning of our young women in different labor sectors despite all the social, health, and educational difficulties that arose during the year.

During 2021 we achieved:

  • 592 graduated mothers are more competitive in the labor market because they have reinforced financial, technical, and soft skills through the 47 strengthening workshops offered this year by the Employment and Entrepreneurship Office.
  • 265 graduates have strengthened their knowledge in beauty, table, and bar, hospital cleaning and disinfection, customer service, office automation, customer service, cash register management, thanks to the 15 courses that were developed during 2021.
  • We identified 502 job opportunities.
  • We manage 369 jobs, of which 107 adolescent mothers have been employed in different positions such as kitchen assistants, waitresses, sales consultants, bakery assistants, cashiers, operators, bartenders, waitresses, stylists, receptionists, among others.
    1.      Permanent jobs:211
    2.      Temporary jobs:116
    3.      Self-managed jobs: 42, of which 25 are permanent and 17 temporary
  • We achieved 273 new alliances with companies such as:Patprimo, Tiendas D1, Hotel Casino Atlantic, Restaurante Da Pietro, Panadería By Gaga, Megastores, Peluquería Mola Beauty, Restaurante Healty, A.C.D. Temporal del Caribe, Efectividad, Baluarte.
  • We strengthen our alliances and generated new ones thanks to business breakfasts, juanfe tours, and job fairs.
  • We made 2 versions of the work wardrobe where more than 500 graduates had the possibility of acquiring ideal pieces to look effective in their work environment.
