DISTRIBUTION
OF SCHOOL EQUIPMENT TO 11 SCHOOLS
Context
: In 2007, Mission Enfance
launched an exploratory mission in Siberia,
in the Khatanga region, towards the Dolgan
ethnic group. This mission was lead in
partnership with the Albert II Foundation
of Monaco, on an environmental project,
which financed most of this mission.
This ethnic group lives
at the far ends of Russia, North of the
polar circle, on the edge of the Arctic.
This semi-nomadic population is living
today in total isolation. The authorities
of Moscow not having the same interested
as in the past for these native populations.
The children's education is quite supplied
with school buildings, the soviet system
having been applied thoroughly throughout
the whole country, even to the most remote
areas. On the other hand, the population
suffers the effects of isolation. Men
and women fall into alcoholism, for the
lack of work and of opportunities linked
to reindeer breeding. The children, often
uprooted in boarding schools, are cut
off from their traditions and culture.
Schools are established in each of these
semi-nomadic population's villages.
The essential request
of the concerned partners is to encourage
handcraft with the children, improve the
psychology of the pupils (neglected over
the last 70 years) and provide sports
equipment, all of this always having been
neglected. All of this equipment has been
bought in Krasnoïarsk, the Siberian
capital, and sent for free by the director
of the town's airport, thanks to our partner
Bernard Buigues' support.
A study on the child
psychology should be lead in 2009, by
our Colombian coordinator Françoise
Bardon, in order to open toys and games
libraries in this region.
