Read an article about Minga Peru, an organization that helps women in Peru. Write the new words and their meanings in your notebook. (Use your dictionary) Minga Peru Minga Peru, a non-governmental organization (NGO) aims to promote social justice and human dignity in rural areas of Latin America. 0_F_ One of its main projects is to serve people in remote communities in the Loreto region of Peru’s Amazon River basin. 1_____ By supporting local women and helping solve cultural differences in understanding and language barriers, Minga Peru tries to improve the lives of the people in the region. One programme created and produced by Minga Peru is Bienvenida Salud, a radio programme broadcast three days a week. It encourages listeners throughout Loreto to openly discuss topics suchs as health, gender equality and human rights. 2_____ Since women in these areas often can’t read and rarely have mobile phones, it is the only really effective method of providing information about these important subjects. The radio programmes are available through personal, battery-powered radios, over community loudspeakers or in classrooms via cassette tapes, and Bienvenida Salud reaches 120 000 people daily. In addition to the radio programme broadcast, Minga Peru trains women to be “promotoras”. This word describes a community member who receives specialized training to provide basic health education in the community without being a professional health care worker. These women are role models and decision-makers who teach other women what they have learned. 3_____ In rural villages, women often lead traditional lives, with few rights and no access to education. So Minga Peru’s specialized training programmes change the status of women and attitudes to women. Emira Montes Zuta is a great example of how Minga Peru’s work can change lives. Zuta started listening to Bienvenida Salud when she was a teenager. 4_____ Zuta received leadership training and became one of Loreto’s first “promotoras”, as well as one of the first women to speak in her village’s meeting. Today, Zuta is one of the most recognized voices in the Amazon, working as both a senior trainer and the Loreto Region Program Manager for Minga Peru. 5_____ “Minga Peru has been my main university where I have been trained and supported as a person and a professional,” says Zuta. “I feel like I have developed important skills and habits to be a strong agent of social change. I still feel very connected to my values, my culture, my traditions and my beliefs, and I am able to speak as I am”. Six sentences have been removed from the article.
