Clubes de Ciencia Mexico

Clubes de Ciencia Mexico (CdeCMx) is a non-profit organization that seeks to encourage Mexican students to pursue professional careers in STEM. We have designed and implemented a blended model of STEM education through hands-on workshops, called Clubes and online courses, named MiniMOOCs. The Clubes and MiniMOOCs target high school and undergraduate students. They are designed for students to learn theoretical and practical aspects at the frontier of multiple topics in STEM. The curriculum of each Club and miniMOOCs is developed by a team of young scientists from the most prestigious universities and research institutions in Mexico and the USA. Each year during the summer we carry out our week of Clubes de Ciencia in multiple cities in Mexico in partnership with multiple institutions. Our miniMOOCs are available to everybody through our online platform.

The 17 Goals are all interconnected, and in order to leave no one behind, it is important that we achieve them all by 2030. We are aligned and work directly with: Goal 6: Ensure access to water and sanitation for all However, we aim to indirectly contribute to Goal 1: End poverty in all its forms everywhere, Goal 2: Zero Hunger, Goal 3: Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages, and Goal 15: Sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, halt and reverse land degradation, halt biodiversity loss. We empower communities to be responsible of their access to water and get a chance to step out of poverty. We improve life conditions by improving health conditions, reducing hunger, and giving more opportunities to focus on school and work. In CAPTAR, A.C. we aim to accompany our beneficiaries in attaining self-sustainability and self-sufficiency.

We train them on water care, we show them how to build their own rainwater recollection system and we provide them with the materials that will last for more than 30 years. Our beneficiaries become self-sufficient and empowered. With access to clean water and new construction skills, they can better their condition and overcome poverty.

Asociacion Mexicana de Ayuda a Ninos con Cancer

When the Mexican Association to Help Children with Cancer was created in 1982 there was no model to follow in Mexico. Latin America was almost completely devoid of non-governmental organizations to support treatment for children with cancer. In the early years AMANC aided treatment with anticancer drugs based on three convictions. The first refers to the right childhood cancer patients have to receive the best available treatment. The second corresponds to high survival and therapeutic success chances provided treatment is timely and effective. The third refers to lack of resources in public hospitals in Mexico, that subjects patients and their families to additional stress and enormous difficulties they must endure during long periods of cancer treatment and surveillance. Those convictions served to define AMANC's mission "That no Mexican child or adolescent under age 20 with cancer, with limited economic resources and without access to social security, shall lack optimal support to defeat cancer." For the past 31 years this paradigm has distinguished AMANC not only as the pioneer organization in Mexico in helping children and adolescents with cancer but also as the first to ensure that their parents and other family members also receive psychological and other services necessary to ensure that they carry through their child's treatment and subsequent medical surveillance period. So that, our Mission is That all disadvantaged Mexican citizens under twenty years and diagnosed with cancer receive optimal and timely support during their treatment and healing and be fully integrated back into their communities. Providing patients under 20 years old, comprehensive care throughout the time that they may need it, including relapses, until recovery is achieved, helping them to renew the course of their lives through education and family health lessons to become agents for social change in their communities Our vision is that in the medium term all children and adolescents with cancer receive quality Comprehensive Care, in a location that is as close to their homes as possible, through the AMANC SYSTEM.
