Educational Opportunities for Vulnerable Girls and Boys with a Gender and Rights-Based Approach in the Peri-Urban Areas of Sucre Municipality
Escuelita movilJustification
Poverty, lack of adequate educational resources, and the need for children to contribute economically to their households negatively affect the academic performance and holistic development of children in peri-urban and rural areas of Sucre municipality. This situation increases the risk of school dropout and poor academic achievement, perpetuating cycles of poverty and social exclusion. In this context, the lack of academic support emerges as a pressing challenge that must be addressed.
