Everyone included
The challenges Central America faces are huge: half of the population is living below the poverty line. The murder rate is higher than anywhere else in the world. The inequality between men and women is another cause for concern. The government does little to counter this discrimination – which also affects young people and indigenous communities. Toghether with its institutional financiers, Trias focuses on strengthening entrepreneurship and promoting the active participation of women and young people in strong organisations. We follow up closely the core capacities of all partners.
Challenges

Stop wasting so much talent
Few countries have as many people on the sidelines as El Salvador. Women and youngsters in particular are denied opportunities to show their talent. Trias picks them up.

Stopping the mass-emigration of disadvantaged young people in Central America
In El Salvador, one of the most dangerous countries in the world, a quiet exodus is taking place of young people who are forced to abandon their dreams. Help stop this refugee crisis.

From co-operation to change in Central America
In El Salvador women are the fifth wheel on the wagon. Unacceptable for a country sliding into a spiral of poverty and violence. Trias puts gender on the agenda, together with the women.
