PERUAP presented photos and videos at East Dulwich Community Centre, to mark its tenth anniversary. Friends of the project attended the evening and enjoyed music played by Paloma Palomino from Peru and Phaxhi Coca from Bolivia. Claudio Chipana (coordinator and founder) and Judith Grismdell (co-founder) presented an account of the help given to the various community groups in a wide area of Peru, and which started in the community of Chiara in Apurimac.
PERUAP’s visit to Peru in 2011 included visits to the shanty town Nueva Esperanza in Callao, the “Polivalente” Centre for handicapped children in Huancayo, the shanty town “Villa Señor de los Milagros” in Carmen de la Legua, the Elderly People’s Centre in Callao, the Bakery training Centre in Bellavista and the Union for Domestic workers in Lima (Sinttrahol).
Claudio and Judith expressed their thanks to all the friends of the Project for their help throughout the last ten years. The project would be continuing the Nueva Esperanza shanty town as well as other community projects. PERUAP
