Meet Emet

In Emet’s own words.

My Name is Emet. I live in Nicaragua with my family and my birthday is September 11th. My favorite class in school is Language Arts. I love the color blue. A leopard is my favorite animal. I love to play soccer with my friends.

Emet loves to learn and loves to do his homework.

The Context

Emet’s world.

Emet 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 Emet lives, tropical downpours turn roads to mud and make schools unreachable for weeks. 19% of children under five have developmental delays from malnutrition.
