BUILDING A BETTER

HONDURAS: THE IMPACT OF

TECHO'S WORK
BY JOSE ESCOBAR
INTRODUCTION TO TECHO IN
HONDURAS

• Welcome to Techo in Honduras, a non-

profit organization dedicated to improving
the lives of those affected by the housing
crisis in Honduras and Latín America
• The mission this program is simple yet
powerful: to provide safe and dignified
housing for families living in poverty. We
believe that everyone deserves a place to
call home, and we work tirelessly to make
that a reality for as many people as
possible.
 THE HOUSING CRISIS IN
HONDURAS
• Honduras is facing a severe housing crisis that
affects millions of people. Over half of the
population lives in inadequate housing, lacking
basic amenities such as running water, electricity,
and sanitation facilities. This has a profound
impact on their health, education, and overall
quality of life of the latín América population.

• The situation is particularly dire for those living

in informal settlements, where families are often
forced to build makeshift homes on land that they
do not own. These homes are often constructed
from materials such as cardboard, plastic, and
scrap metal, which provide little protection from
the elements. In addition, families living in these
settlements are at risk of eviction and
displacement, as they have no legal right to the
land they occupy.
HOW TECHO IS MAKING A DIFFERENCE

• Techo is making a significant impact in Honduras

by providing safe and sustainable housing
solutions to those in need. Through their
community-driven approach, Techo works
closely with local residents of the area students
and volunteers to identify the most pressing
needs and develop customized solutions that
meet their unique circumstances.

• The Techo makes a campaingn that last 2 days.

This collection is done by volunteers as a matter
of fact, 70 percent of their yearly fonds are
collected in those two days.
TECHO'S COLLABORATIVE APPROACH

• Techo's collaborative approach is at the heart of

its mission to address the housing crisis in
Honduras. By working closely with local
communities, governments, and other
organizations, Techo is able to create sustainable
solutions that have a lasting impact and am
thankful to say that I will apport to this inpact in
Honduran society.
