Dear supporters,
As spring is around the corner, some news from our project in Honduras: we are happy to announce that the demand for the training programme increases every year.
The professional training project "Talleres" enables young people in Honduras to gain practical experience in various trades such as welding, automotive mechanics, painting, carpentry, electrical engineering, cosmetics and tailoring in a three-year program. The classes are taught by Honduran professionals. Young people are willing to participate in workshops, because they are convinced that they are learning very important skills for career preparation, but also capacities that can be useful for their communities. The girls are especially excited to learn skills in traditionally male-dominated professions. Talleres encourage participants to challenge traditional gender roles.
If you would like to learn more about this project, please reach out to us at info@pen-paper-peace.org. For more up-to-date information, follow us on Instagram!
Unfortunately, the funding of Talleres is always at risk due to high inflation and an increase in the cost of living in Honduras. After 2024 it will be unclear. Please consider supporting Talleres again, if you can and if you are as passionate about this project as we are! We are always happy to receive further donations.
Thank you for your support!
All our best,
The entire team of PEN PAPER PEACE
