Overview

Non-profit association that supports street children and adolescents in Cusco since 1991. We offer a night shelter service for young people who have nowhere to spend the night. We also have a library and a cultural space where they can socialize, two training workshops (bakery and carpentry) to develop their skills and abilities, and a solidarity tourism program to promote intercultural exchanges. Qosqo Maki is the only institution in Cusco that provides an educational response, instead of repressive or welfare, to these adolescents.
