Alessia Speaks of ECW-supported +DIVERSIDAD Programme's Impact on Inclusion in Peru

Alessia, 16, left Venezuela years ago. At first, it was a challenge to find acceptance in Peru and at school, but now Alessia is thriving.
For Alessia and thousands of other migrant students in Peru, a UNESCO-led teacher training initiative, funded as part of ECW’s +DIVERSIDAD programme in Peru, has made all the difference. The Training Programme of Inclusive Education Management and Pedagogy aims to help teachers and school principals implement best practices for inclusive education. In collaboration with Antonio Ruiz de Montoya University, participants in Lima and La Libertad (Trujillo) are trained in various subjects, including socio-emotional skills for living together, gender equality, interculturality and school inclusion.
