Talk with women's groups about COVID19

In Mexico, there has been hopeful progress in the vaccination against the COVID-19 disease; however, the number of infections has increased in the last few days, making it essential to continue reinforcing and applying health recommendations to take care of ourselves and our families.

During the last few months, we have made progress in:

Constantly informing the women's groups we work with by avoiding rumors and misinformation among the communities and/or locality they belong to, reinforcing COVID-19 prevention measures and encouraging them to get vaccinated.
We delivered a basic package of personal and household hygiene supplies to a group of women.
Provided technical accompaniment and advice on the design and management of backyard gardens.
The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately affected families in the municipality of Ocosingo, Chiapas. We carry out all our activities with strict adherence to the recommendations of the Ministry of Health to maintain the safety and integrity of our target groups and the team itself.

Thank you for your support, all of this would not have been possible without your support. We appreciate the trust you have placed in our project and our work. You keep us in the constant struggle to make changes in the lives of hundreds of families in the Lacandon Jungle.

We continue working for the communities

By Xilotl A.C | Project leader

Families receiving cleaning packages

***English version***

We continue working for the communities.

In these first months of 2021, it was announced that in Mexico the inhabitants of the country would begin to be vaccinated, beginning in this first stage with health employees and senior citizens. However, this process will take some time to reach all the inhabitants of our country.

That is why, thanks to the collaboration we received through this project, we have continued with our activities, bringing to the families of the indigenous communities of the municipality of Ocosingo, Chiapas, cleaning packages and reusable face masks so that they can continue carrying out their activities with the care recommended by the health authorities.

We share that during the delivery of the cleaning packages, the team tried to comply with the recommended prevention measures.

We appreciate the support you are giving us, so we invite you to visit our other projects at https://www.globalgiving.org/donate/61768/xilotl-asociacion-para-el-desarrollo-social-a-c/ and/or share on your social networks with family and friends.

***Versión español***

Seguimos trabajando para las comunidades.

En estos primeros meses del 2021, se anunció que en México se comenzaría a vacunar a los habitantes del país, comenzando en esta primera etapa con empleados de la salud y adultos mayores de la tercera edad. Sin embargo este proceso tomará un tiempo para poder llegar hacia todos los habitantes de nuestro país.

Es por ello que gracias a la colaboración que recibimos a través de este proyecto, hemos continuado con la realización de nuestras actividades, llevando a las familias de las comunidades indígenas del municipio de Ocosingo, Chiapas, paquetes de limpieza y cubrebocas reutilizables para que puedan seguir realizando sus actividades con los cuidados recomendados por las autoridades de salud.

Compartimos que durante la entrega de los paquetes de limpieza, el equipo procuró cumplir con las medidas de prevención recomendadas.

Agradecemos el apoyo que nos están brindando, por lo que te invitamos a visitar nuestros otros proyectos en https://www.globalgiving.org/donate/61768/xilotl-asociacion-para-el-desarrollo-social-a-c/ y/o compartir en sus redes sociales con familiares y amigos.

Delivery of prevention kits and demonstration

***English version***

We do not lower our guard against COVID19.

We are grateful once again that you continue to add to the work we carry out through our project, to bring to families in remote communities of the municipality of Ocosingo, Chiapas, cleaning and protection supplies, for the prevention of the new coronavirus.

We have delivered cleaning kits and reusable face masks to 20 families in the neighborhoods of the municipality of Ocosingo, Chiapas, Santa Cruz and Ixtapa Mirador.
A monitoring of the kit of seeds delivered to families has been carried out, which already have production of vegetables and species for family consumption and more deliveries have been made to new families.
We distribute more brochures and flyers on how to prevent the spread of COVID19, the proper use and washing of the mask.

During the delivery of the kits, as well as the monitoring of the family gardens, the team sought to comply with the recommended prevention measures.

Thank you all very much for being part of our activities, for your donations, since this way it is possible to carry out our activities and continue helping those who need it most.
