PIARA Community Outreach and Development
Outside of the cities, the rural countryside of
highland Ancash, Peru is made up of Quechua-speaking farming and herding
communities. Working within these communities in the Province of Huaylas
has brought to our attention the challenges many rural Ancashinos face in
their daily lives. An important goal of PIARA is to identify specific
development issues of importance to the communities we work with and find ways
to make a difference for the future. The issues are many and are
associated with a sustained state of poverty: education, infrastructure, and
health are the main areas in need of attention and improvement. PIARA is
actively collaborating with
these communities to address these concerns.
