In Villa de Leyva, Colombia, many vulnerable children, whether from local families living in severe poverty or from Venezuelan migrant families, do not have access to an educational and recreational space tailored to their needs.
Public schools only accept children starting at age 5, while private schools remain too expensive.
Additionally, long distances and the lack of transportation complicate access to education.

It is in this context that the "Los Guaduales Recreational Workshop" was created - a space for play, discovery, and learning, aimed at children who would otherwise have no educational opportunities before reaching school age.
Founded three years ago in a borrowed house, the initiative has already welcomed 70 children.
