CINDE is a non-profit organization that works in education from the first stages of childhood in San Salvador (El Salvador) in two districts of the poorer urban zone of the city: Soyapango and Mejicanos. These zones share similar characteristics: overpopulation, unemployment, informal trade concentrations on streets and the absence of childcare programs. These districts have a strong gang presence and high levels of violence.
The work of CINDE is aimed at sectors of the Salvadoran population that live in poverty and exclusion, a population that cannot afford a basic hamper and therefore cannot meet many of its needs. It is a population living in a stressful environment in which violence and domestic abuse are commonplace.
