Veggies From Mexico meets with World Vision Mexico to encourage the promotion of programs for children and adolescents in Mexico
In January, we had the opportunity to meet with World Vision Mexico, an international organization that has been one of the leading promoters of the wellbeing of children, adolescents, and young people living in vulnerable situations in the world and Mexico.
Among the key activities to be developed with this institution, which has more than 40 years of experience in Mexico, are different diagnostics to detect factors that cause school dropout, and teenage pregnancy, among others, and thus implement government actions to prevent them.
Currently, World Vision Mexico, together with the Government of Canada’s Labor Finance Program, has initiated the project “Harvesting Labor Rights in the farming sector of Sinaloa and Jalisco”, which seeks to promote the labor rights of farm workers and the welfare of their family members and children.
As you know, the member companies of the Veggies from Mexico community have always been characterized, not only for complying with the labor rights of their collaborators but also for seeking to exceed them by offering housing, electricity, gas, daycare centers, school transportation, among other facilities for their collaborators and children.
For this reason, we will seek to work together with this organization to continue promoting good labor and social responsibility practices in Sinaloa and Mexico.
World Vision is a global humanitarian aid organization that has been operating for more than 70 years in Africa, America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and the Middle East; it has been working for 40 years in Mexico, with national and international recognition, transforming living conditions and increasing opportunities for a better future for children, adolescents and young people who live in situations of greater vulnerability in the country.
