The high school

Sierra Centraal,
Ecuador


Literally - the high school, at almost 4000m.
Education is the most problematic in this area. Due to not only the inaccessibility of the villages but also poorly trained teachers and lack of community participation. In 2000 illiteracy rate was still 37.55% amongst the population older than 10 years and 44.2% amongst the population older than 15 years.
