Bolivia ESC Humanitarian Aid Project The Munasim Kullakita Foundation (Quierete Hermanita), based in the department of La Paz, Bolivia, is an organisation with 15 years of experience in the care of very vulnerable children and adolescents.

The volunteer will give social support in family integration processes, as well as in the process of school integration for girl and adolescent victims; will go on the field to establish contact with girls and adolescents in situations of commercial sexual exploitation; will give basic assistance and coordination with health centres for access to care; and will give support for the project’s data systematisation processes.
