Superlearner is a new and developing organization, and since we started the project in 2017, founded in 2018, we have come a long way! Superlearner is now recognized as an NGO in Italy. We cooperate with a number of organizations in Lima and 12 permanent volunteers are working with Superlearner both onsite and online.
Currently, Superlearner operates in four of the poorest areas in Lima, Peru. In three locations, we work as a compliment to existing organizations. In the fourth location, it is solely us operating and this is where the project started. We are working with 53 children, 50 teenagers, and 10 mothers in total, and in each location we offer activities once a week. The children are responding very well to the project. They join voluntarily and continue to show up, and they are excited and eager to learn.
The children and their families live in poverty stricken districts, and have limited or no economical, social, and cultural resources. This affects the basic living conditions such as access to fresh water, hygiene, and housing situation as well as health, safety, and mental well-being. The children are very vulnerable in these communities, and they often struggle with problematic family backgrounds.
In addition to this, the quality of education is very low and when growing up in these areas, it is to many difficult to rise above their circumstances.
Superlearner aims to empower the children through formal and non-formal education, and we offer Superlearner activities in each community. In cooperation with our partner organizations, we address issues such as no drinking water, unhealthy diet, and lack of safety too.
