Guantanamo.- A group of 70 educators from Guantánamo is working in countries such as Honduras, Equatorial Guinea, and Angola to eradicate illiteracy using the Cuban method “Yes, I Can.”
Jacqueline Fauré, a teacher from Guantánamo, stands out for her work in the Paradise Community, in Honduras, where they could declared the Community free from illiteracy more than three months ago through the “Yes, I Can.”
The project involves students and has achieved significant results, consolidating alliances and teaching literacy with universities, the most notable are the Pedagogical University, the Catholic University, the Agricultural University, the Autonomous University, the UCED, and private educational centers, as well as in different sectors such as coffee and tobacco, Faure explains.
“We have detected that in some companies, to mention a few, coffee, tobacco, and melon farming companies, there is a significant number of illiterate people who have joined the national literacy program. There are a number of women who did not know how to read or write, and this wonderful program has reached them,” she says.
Thanks to this effort, Honduras is close to being declared a country free of illiteracy, as has already been the case in some areas.
