Joining Forces, Strengthening Paths

In March, we shared with you how, since 2023, we have been building a transformative training process at the Juan Misael Saracho Teacher Training School in Tarija, based on critical thinking and emotional education. In that article, we highlighted the initial achievements with fifth-year teachers, who began to incorporate evaluation criteria that assess the use […]


Questions that Transform

There are questions that, however uncomfortable they may be, need to be asked. At Alma, we believe that a true commitment to education not only involves supporting others, but also daring to question, facing challenges head-on, and opening spaces for change. In 2025, together with the directors and teams of the Juan Misael Saracho Teacher […]


TEACHERS WILLING TO INNOVATE THEIR TEACHING PRACTICES DURING MODULE 1 OF OUR PEDAGOGICAL INNOVATION COURSE – 2025.

In the current year of 2025, within the Pedagogical Innovation course, we have a total of 48 teachers focused on by specialists from the UGELEs Quispicanchi and Canchis. In this first module, it was evident that the participating teachers are committed to change within their teaching practices, as evidenced by their work during Module 1. […]


CHALLENGES THAT CONTINUE TO INSPIRE US AS TEACHERS

At the end of 2024, we had the valuable opportunity to establish contact with the Higher Education Department of the Cusco Regional Education Office. During the first quarter of 2025, this connection was consolidated through meetings with directors of various Higher Education Schools of Pedagogy (EESP), where we planned working sessions and workshops for students, […]


WE BEGIN THE NEW ADVENTURE

After coordinating with Brother Manuel, director of the La Salle School of Higher Education in Urubamba, on Monday, May 26th, we held our first training session with all the School’s faculty. We shared our strategies for developing complex thinking and provided guidelines on how students who will be traveling to educational institutions for their first […]


COMMITTED SPECIALIST

Americo Washington Aitara Ccana, a primary school specialist from the Canchis UGEL, is a native of Canchis Sicuani. He began his training with Alma two years ago, where he participated as a participating specialist in the Pedagogical Innovation course developed with all teachers in the Cusco region. During this participation, our specialist gained insight into […]


ALLIES FOR EDUCATION

One of the main challenges we face at the Alma Foundation every two years is building a strong relationship with educational authorities, our institutional partners. In Bolivia, district and departmental education directorates, educational units, and ESFM (Higher Schools for Teacher Training) typically change leadership every two or three years, forcing us to restart the process […]


CHALLENGES THAT MOTIVATE US

This year, we have deepened our commitment to the initial training of teachers in Tarija. We have had the opportunity to experience firsthand one of the main challenges of the training process: ensuring that, from the first courses, theory and practice are effectively articulated, driving the strengthening of the knowledge, skills, and motivation of future […]


GEREDUC March Training

On Friday March 28th, we completed our first in person training of the 2025 school year with our Innovative Pedagogy work group; made up of specialists from the Gerencia Regional de Educacion- Cusco (GEREDUC), the UGEL Canchis, and the UGEL Quispicanchi, who will be participating with Alma in a national innovative pedagogy contest hosted by […]


IN SEARCH OF NEW CHALLENGES

Alma has proposed conducting a diagnostic assessment with the Tupac Amaru Public Higher Education Schools in Tinta and La Salle in Urubamba for this year, 2025. This proposal arose from the fact that our EBR teachers are already overwhelmed with too many online courses and no longer see 100% interest in developing the courses offered. […]


Collaborative Work Improves Results

Since 2023, our work at the Juan Misael Saracho Teacher Training School has been a journey of challenges and learning, but above all, of collaboration and transformation. From the beginning, we took on the challenge of developing a teacher training program based on critical thinking and emotional education, aimed not only at students but also […]

Education is the engine of change, and at the Alma Foundation, we know this very well. This new year, our work in Bolivia continues to make steady progress, consolidating our efforts at the Juan Misael Saracho Teacher Training Schools in Tarija and the Clara Parada de Pinto Schools in Beni. Since January, we have successfully […]
