Vivamos Mejor has been contributing to the improvement of the living conditions of disadvantaged people in Latin America for 40 years with a targeted "Help for Self-Help" approach. With the "Food and Water" programme, our goal is to promote the strengthening of the livelihoods of smallholder families.

How we work

We are committed to giving socially marginalized communities in Latin America a fair chance at social participation, education, and income to overcome poverty on their own.

... and why

After years of economic growth and social progress, hunger is on the rise again in Latin America. The region is also suffering from the consequences of climate change. Many families, children and young people live in poverty. They need support to rise out of poverty and actively shape their futures.
