Since 1996, Cooperative for Education has been committed to breaking the cycle of poverty in Guatemala through education. Our sustainable textbook, computer, reading, and youth development programs have transformed the lives of more than a quarter million students. We empower rural Guatemalan communities to transform their own quality of education, with a focus on evening the playing field for girls, who are typically excluded from education.

We are a mixed, interdisciplinary team committed to transforming the unequal reality of Guatemala; a team committed to artivism and digital media as tools to achieve it. Artivism as a recovery of artistic action for immediate social intervention; and digital media as a resource that has caused profound changes in the production of content and democratization of information and communication channels; giving rise to digital activism, community journalism and linking digital media with social collectives generating powerful and comprehensive alliances throughout Latin America.
