Children shape the future in Nicaragua
Save the Children works throughout Latin America
with both national and local governments, communities,
partners and children themselves to improve investment
in children’s resources.

92%
Nicaragua is just one example where we have had
great success. Over the last eight years, we have
managed to increase average municipal investment in
children by 92%.
20125,300
In 2012, no fewer than 5,300 children and young
adolescents in Nicaragua were involved in developing
proposals with their local authorities – ensuring that new
classrooms, sports fields, playgrounds, books and school
equipment were firmly on the agenda.
135,000
Benefitting over 135,000 children so far, these projects
will make Nicaragua a better place for children long into
the future.
