Supporting Youth in Monteverde
PublicContenu téléchargeable
open in viewerDue to the reliance on tourism in Monteverde, Costa Rica, young people face a lack of diversified career opportunities and activities within the community. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated this problem, revealing the gaps that exist within the community. This project, sponsored by the Monteverde Community Fund, emphasizes the importance of listening to the experiences of youth and exploring where their needs and interests lie. We interviewed young people, teachers, and leaders of nonprofit organizations. We found that youth are most interested in programs that offer professional development, recreational activities, and life skill development. Our plan for the development of youth programs consists of recommendations on program topic areas, partnerships, and the operations of the MCF.
