Guerrero

• Cochoapa el Grande
• Metlatónoc

These are two of the poorest municipalities in the country (Coneval 2014).

• Amextra works with communities that survived a mudslide and the resulting destruction of their homes caused by hurricanes in 2013.
• 65.2% of people in Guerrero live in poverty (CONEVAL, 2014).
• Communities lack basic services such as running water, sewage systems, and electricity (Amextra 2017).

“Every week I come to Amextra’s health and nutrition workshops. I like to come because my teacher, Isaura, explains how to eat healthily and she gives us fruits and teaches us with games… I like to learn about the human body and about how I am growing, which I can see because Amextra measures us each month.”
