Challenge

This project will address the critical infrastructure issues of Escuela n 1089 in Puerta del Monte, Argentina. Structural damage, including deep cracks in walls and foundations, poses a safety risk for students and teachers. The lack of thermal insulation creates extreme temperatures in classrooms, disrupting the learning environment. By repairing the building and improving conditions, the project will ensure a safe, comfortable, and functional space for education.

Solution

This microproject will solve the problem by repairing cracks in the walls and foundations, reinforcing the building's structural integrity. Thermal insulation will be installed under the metal roof to create a comfortable temperature in classrooms year-round. Additionally, classrooms and common areas will be revoiced and painted, ensuring durable and welcoming spaces. These interventions will provide a safe and supportive environment for students and teachers to thrive.

Long-Term Impact

The long-term impact of this project includes a safer and more resilient school infrastructure that will serve future generations of students in Puerta del Monte. Improved classrooms and common areas will enhance the quality of education, reduce absenteeism, and foster a positive learning environment. By addressing structural issues, the school will remain a central pillar of the community, supporting educational development and strengthening opportunities in this rural area.
