Your impact

Your impact

Labor income inequality is a key driver of the high level of income inequality in Costa Rica. Besides that, Costa Rica struggles with increasing the female labor force participation and has therefore also problems in gender equality.

Peru has been one of the poorest and most unequal countries in Latin America. There is a lot of gender inequality and discrimination in the country that you can have an impact on.

Costa Rica is known for its stable and long-standing democracy. The country also has a very rich biodiversity, containing more than 6% of the world’s organisms!

 

Peru is the third largest country in South America. It is a very diverse country with mountains as well as beaches, rainforests and deserts. Peruvian communities have self-discipline as their main value, together with respect. Many people can learn from these values and you have the chance to discover them!
