Guatemala
A better future for people at risk of exclusion

Guatemala, whose name in Nahuatl means “place of many trees”, is an eminently rural country, very attached to the indigenous culture and the Mayan heritage of its population. Between 1960 and 1996 it suffered a long civil war, known as the Internal Armed Conflict, which left more than 200,000 victims. We support projects that benefit the Guatemalan society.
