Education in Guatemala and Bolivia is one of our most important areas in Development Cooperation. FABRE has implemented more than 40 educational projects , reaching more than 30.000 students, especially those immersed in rural environments with very low opportunities to exercise their right to quality education.

Our projects in Ivory Coast are aimed to assisting people infected with AIDs and promote health and sanitation training to mothers and children to prevent the spreading of the disease. We also provide health services and care to children and the elderly thanks to our program of comprehensive care services.

FABRE has carried out projects on water and sanitation providing access to this essential resource for home use and drinking. We have also developed programs for the improvement of farm products to promote economic growth and secure food availability. These actions have taken place in countries such as Bolivia, Ivory Coast, Guatemala and others.

The work of FABRE for the recognition of women’s rights, as well as pursuing equality between men and women, has been present since its foundation. It is a key condition for development, so we integrate those in a real and effective way within the framework of human rights in culture, structures and processes. Our projects in Bolivia, as in Guatemala, Cuba, Peru and Côte d’Ivoire, are an evidence of this integration.

In FABRE we believe that, all together, we can make the world a fairer place. Achieving this not only depends on development cooperation carried out by countries in the South, but it is also essential that, in the North, we become aware of the social and economic inequalities in the world, acknowledging all causes and consequences and taking solidarity as a way of living.

The cornerstone of our strategy is real integration and inter-culturalism in the classroom. We promote Education for Sustainable Development cooperation and the exchange of knowledge between cultures, inspired by our collaboration with local partners in the South.

We work in Education for Sustainable Development within the framework of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), the tool by means of which the United Nations invites us to fight for a global, fair-to-all and sustainable development.

Family support programs represent one of the main lines of action of the Foundation, as well as a cutting through aspect and a top priority asset in each of our projects. For years now, FABRE has developed counselling and support initiatives to support families in Spain and abroad, most significantly in Nordic and Slavic countries, in subjects such as couple advise, close family relationships and dealing with adolescence.
