In Alexa’s own words.

My name is Alexa. My birthday is September 1, 2012. I live with my family in the city of Granada, Nicaragua.

The Context

Alexa’s world.

Alexa lives in Granada, Nicaragua — one of the oldest colonial cities in the Americas. Behind the painted facades and cobblestone streets, families in the surrounding barrios survive on less than $10 a day.

63% of Nicaraguans live in poverty. In the barrios where Alexa lives, tropical downpours turn roads to mud and make schools unreachable for weeks. 19% of children under five have developmental delays from malnutrition.
