estudiantes graduados de la Harvard Graduate School of Design en el diseño de nuestro segundo proyecto en La Prusia, encuadrado en un análisis completo de la situación ambiental, socioeconómica y humana del barrio de La Prusia en Granada, Nicaragua, que permita trabajar en el desarrollo integral y sostenible del barrio. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El 9 de Mayo de 2008 se presentó oficialmente el Proyecto de La Prusia en el Auditorio de la Harvard GSD. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Estos son los autores del proyecto:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Julia Watson MLA, DK Osseo-Asare MArch, Juliana Silbermins

type='text'>Blog para voluntarios de Casas de la Esperanza!</title><content type='html'>Queridos voluntarios y amigos de la Asociación Casas de la Esperanza (ACE):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Suponemos que a todos os interesa saber de los amigos y proyectos que habéis dejado en La Prusia. Nos gustaría iros poniendo al día de cómo van las cosas por ahí.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Angel volvió hace pocos días de La Prusia. Judit volvió a Boston después de haber estado allí los tres meses de verano o de invierno, según se mire. No ha sido una temporada fácil. Lluvias intensas, algunos coletazos de los dos huracanes que dejaron el camino de La Prusia intransitable durante varios días. Cortes de luz diarios de varias horas (de 8 horas en La Prusia y muchas averías) han machacado la economía del país, han ahuyentado el turismo, destruido el poco empleo que había y dificultado aún más la vida nada fácil de las familias de La Prusia y de otras muchas barriadas de Granada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Este verano ha habido bastantes voluntarios, llegando a coincidir en La Prusia hasta veinte. La mayoría españoles o hispanoparlantes, pero también angloparlantes. Todos se han integrado muy bien y, en general, estos últimos han acabado hablando bastante español o, por lo menos, nicaragüense ya que a los españoles nos entendían peor. Muchos han trabajado directamente con las familias y han puesto en marcha nuevos Proyectos que, aunque no estén aún totalmente consolidados, son un acicate para la vida del barrio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Se sigue impulsando la construcción de las casas, aunque a veces sin contar con las ganas o empeño que podría esperarse de las familias interesadas. Tres o cuatro de las casas de las primeras filas apenas han avanzado en los últimos meses (se ha llamado la atención a varios de los que no construyen), pero la mayoría, mas de veinte, están muy avanzadas. Hay cuatro familias viviendo: Son las de Eusebia, Juanita, Sakia y Arnulfo, y siete casas más tienen tejado, son las de Carlos, Hugo, José Adán, Álvaro, Petrona, Jackle y Martha. Un voluntario, Luisma, ha instalado la electricidad en las casas techadas. Leire, arquitecto, ha aconsejado y enseñado a Marco. Ha hecho un estudio interesantísimo del barrio y de cada chabola. Oriol, Gavin, Morag, Dustin, Georgs, Rafael, Theresa y Michel, Daniel, Nono y otros voluntarios han ayudado a construir a las familias que lo necesitaban y ahora hay otros voluntarios que siguen ayudando. Aunque todavía tendrá que mejorar mucho la forma final del conjunto de viviendas, lo cierto es que se ha avanzado mucho. También es importante saber que las chabolas desalojadas han desaparecido por completo, y que la Alcaldía no permite la construcción de otras nuevas. Muchas familias, sin embargo, prefieren quedarse donde están. Va a ser, pues, difícil que las chabolas de La Prusia dejen de existir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ya están funcionando varios Proyectos para impulsar el desarrollo del barrio. Era algo que habíamos considerado como esencial desde el principio, pero era preciso tener terminadas nuestras aulas. También necesitábamos, y seguimos necesitando, muchos voluntarios. Este verano, gracias en gran parte a la ayuda de hacesfalta.org, un importante grupo de voluntarios ha estado viviendo ya en La Prusia, en nuestra recién estrenada Casa de Voluntarios. Así ha sido posible el trato directo con las familias, el ir viendo sus necesidades y organizando actividades para todos: Laura, con solo su libreta, puso en marcha el Proyecto de “Apoyo Escolar” y dio forma al “Club de Lectura” de los sábados por la mañana ideado por Kevin para los más pequeños. La “Educación de Adultos,” incluyendo nuestra colaboración en el programa de Alfabetización del Ministerio de Educación, que nos ha proporcionado medios técnicos. Elena y Edu, Esther, Sonia, Maite, María, Elsa, Leyre y los demás voluntarios y voluntarias que han estado en cada momento, incluso ayudando a construir, han participado activamente y han ayudado siempre a la puesta en marcha de estos Proyectos. Inés se ha ocupado de la Educación de Adultos y Dacil de la de los niños, pero tanto ellas como los otros voluntarios han dando clases a todos y a todas horas. Lo malo es que cada vez que hay cambio de voluntarios, y sobre todo si hace mal tiempo, la asistencia decae y hay que volver a empezar a ir de casa en casa. Hay que estar reorganizándolo todo continuamente. Por eso se han hecho y se están haciendo fichas de cada persona, de cada chico, de cada familia que está o ha estado o alguno de nuestros programas. Gavin. Dustin, Morag, George y Jennifer, siguiendo los pasos de Enid han seguido con las clases de inglés.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;José Manuel y otros voluntarios limpiaron un trozo del terreno y encargaron a Gato unas porterías y unas canastas para jugar al fútbol y al baloncesto. Tenemos balones, pero en este momento sólo algunos fines de semana se reúne algún grupo para jugar. José Manuel también fue el que nos puso en relación con Dentistas sin Fronteras. Gracias a eso vinieron a La Prusia y atendieron a un mogollón de gente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El Proyecto de Salud lo puso en pie Patricia. Se implicó muchísimo con las personas mayores y enfermas de la comunidad. Gracias a ella y a todas sus gestiones sabemos algo de los centros de salud, públicos y privados, de Granada y de algunos de Managua. El Centro de Salud Público Palmira nos envió un equipo médico de Managua para atender a la gente en general, pero de modo más específico a mujeres y niños. Y, lo más importante, a partir del día 26, todos los miércoles de 9 a 12, va a haber una doctora del servicio de salud público en nuestra Casa Modelo de La Prusia, al parecer acompañada por Juan Carlos y alguna otra enfermera, para visitar a todos cuantos lo necesiten. El primer día fue el día 26. Todo fue muy bien. Ahora mismo tenemos como voluntario a José Luis Bauset, médico de urgencias del Hospital General de Murcia, que está haciendo un gran papel ayudando a la comunidad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Es importante señalar la incorporación a nuestros proyectos de voluntarios nicaragüenses. Fanny, profesora de costura, dirige el Taller de Costura y Cleo el Taller de Manualidades. Así está asegurada la continuidad y cada día se apunta más gente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Queremos poner pronto en marcha un Taller de Carpintería y otro de Fundición, y es posible que también podamos dar cabida a nuevas sugerencias como preparación de “conservas” y producción de cerámica con ayuda de nuevos voluntarios.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Como es lógico, ahora el número de voluntarios ha disminuido. En Octubre hay una media de nueve , tal vez más porque siguen escribiendo, algunos de larga duración. Dacil, Manuel, Beatriz y Olga llevan adelante los proyectos de enseñanza de adultos y refuerezo escolar. Jennifer, el inglés. José Luis, la atención médica. Olga trabaja también como psicóloga. Jon, Adrián y Oscar, construyen. Nos siguen ayudando los voluntarios nicaragüenses. Gracias a ellos, nosotros y los voluntarios que siguen escribiendo podremos mantener lo que estamos haciendo. Si conocéis gente dispuesta a ayudar, animadles. Sabemos que muchos mantenéis el contacto con las familias de La Prusia y que hay quien les ha prometido volver. Esperamos y deseamos que lo hagáis. Mientras, quisiéramos seguir en contacto con vosotros, a través de boletines como éste, del blog, o de cualquier otra forma que sugiráis. Vuestra ayuda es inestimable. Hemos mandado el e-mail de cuantos habéis estado este verano a algunos indecisos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mirad lo que alguien dice: “He mandado un correo electrónico a alguna de las personas que aparecían en la lista que me mandasteis. No os podéis ni imaginar la rapidez de la respuesta, la energía positiva que transmiten y la ayuda que me han facilitado.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Los que queráis escribir en este Blog, me lo decís y os envío la invitación para que podáis entrar. Os invitamos a todos a entrar en la página web y ver los cientos de fotos que hemos colgado en 6 albumes Picasa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gracias a todos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Angel y Judit&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3959351712613985019-7669380872863489426?l=casas-de-la-esperanza.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://casas-de-la-esperanza.blogspot.com/feeds/7669380872863489426/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3959351712613985019&amp;postID=7669380872863489426' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3959351712613985019/posts/default/7669380872863489426'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3959351712613985019/posts/default/7669380872863489426'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://casas-de-la-esperanza.blogspot.com/2007/10/blog-para-voluntarios-de-casas-de-la.html' title='Blog para voluntarios de Casas de la Esperanza!'/><author><name>rccharvard</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13148065272864740113</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3959351712613985019.post-4350144319683382033</id><published>2007-05-03T13:26:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-29T12:31:19.699-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Study, business, building</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_agPn5vCSZzg/RjpMnKUs3MI/AAAAAAAAAAk/v9SPNQddDCg/s1600-h/Casas+photos+2++EB+Apr+07002.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5060441366973963458" style="FLOAT: left;

It was comfortable because I felt more like a casual, accepted friend who did a few useful things, than an outsider around for a short term. My time walking through the community, and talking, studying and working with various project members and groups was characterized by respect, friendliness, patience, openness and humour - even given my limited Spanish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The experience was enrichng because I was able to be involved with different individuals and groups in a variety of ways that appeared to fit with ongoing life and efforts in the community. I assisted Silvia, a teacher in the local school, in her personal English studies and had a bit of Spanish exchange in return, and enjoyed time with her children and grandchildren; in a less structured way, I enjoyed helping Marco with some English work occasionally. As well, I appreciated several longer conversations and exchanges with Angelica about the projects, her work, and its challenges. I was pleased to spend some hours helping in construction work alongside family members and volunteers - if you can't hoist stone and blocks, or do much cement work, you can still carry water, do some digging and leveling, or tie the iron used to reinforce cement! And all the international volunteers I met on site were good hearted and interesting folks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also ended up being a kind of buyer and seller for the women's jewellry/handicraft cooperative group "La Esperanza Granada", learning about the work, buying pieces from various members over the course of  7 "business" meetings, and selling some items on to international students at a Granada language school, along with passing on some of the story of the project. There may eventually be a connection of this group with a fair trade selling organization in the States, or perhaps another volunteer can pursue more possibilities like this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think this project is moving along quite quickly, in contrast to bigger organizations' work, and overall the community members show a high level of responsibility and commitment, especially considering the young age of many of those involved. With little opportunity for other than foundational formal education and little societal support, the young staff are handling a lot well - work, parenting, family and community dynamics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope to return some day, and, in the meantime, am happy to be kept posted on the project and communtiy happenings.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3959351712613985019-8297319161448301441?l=casas-de-la-esperanza.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://casas-de-la-esperanza.blogspot.com/feeds/8297319161448301441/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3959351712613985019&amp;postID=8297319161448301441' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3959351712613985019/posts/default/8297319161448301441'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3959351712613985019/posts/default/8297319161448301441'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://casas-de-la-esperanza.blogspot.com/2007/05/different-kind-of-volunteering.html' title='A different kind of volunteering . .'/><author><name>Enid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03202940912947975174</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3959351712613985019.post-2640073925597514563</id><published>2007-05-01T09:30:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-05-01T09:32:49.138-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Juanita y Mayela are already living with their families in the three first houses of Casas de la Esperanza I'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Eusebia'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_SmprragEp2o/RjdrbkZCJtI/AAAAAAAAABM/rXBohge0Tu0/s1600-h/DSC00365.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5059630827743356626" style="FLOAT: left;

Es hijo de Angélica (incansable colaboradora del proyecto) y de Hugo (quien también coopera con el proyecto). Su hermanito menor es Steven (otro fantástico niño). Kevin es muy trabajador y sabe ganarse el cariño de todos los voluntarios. Quiere colaborar en la construcción pero los voluntarios nos encargamos de recomendarle que lo más importante ahora para él es estudiar, leer y aprender mucho en la escuela. También se sumó a las clases de inglés impartidas durante los almuerzos del proyecto.
