Meet Milena

In Milena’s own words.

My name is Milena and my birthday is January 5, 2022. I live in Honduras with my mom and grandmother, but I spend most of my time with my Aunt Ruth. I love puppies and Iike to play with dolls.

“Milena is very shy and quiet.”

The Context

Milena’s world.

Milena lives in the rural highlands of Tegucigalpa, Honduras — in the heart of Central America’s Northern Triangle. She walks hours to reach school when the roads are passable.

In rural Honduras, 48% of children are chronically malnourished. Hurricanes have displaced hundreds of thousands. Families here live in one-room adobe homes with corrugated roofing, farming coffee on hillside plots with hand tools.
