A letter from our chair
For many years, LAFF has sought to bring international standards, safeguarding principles, and educational best practices into the support we offer. In 2024–2025, we made a deliberate shift from adaptation to true contextualisation. Rather than assuming that proven frameworks could simply be transferred, we invested in shaping them around Andean realities, cultural identities, and the lived experiences of the communities our partners serve.
This evolution was powerfully guided by the work of Amapola, our Project Coordinator during this cycle. Her leadership transformed how we designed and facilitated workshops, ensuring they were not only rigorous but culturally meaningful. With a strong gender and intercultural lens, curricula were tailored to reflect local worldviews, address structural inequalities, and create spaces where participants felt recognised and respected. Educational content became more than instruction; it became dialogue, reflection, and shared learning.
Educational content became more than instruction; it became dialogue, reflection, and shared learning.
This work was possible because of LAFF’s long-standing presence in Peru. Decades of relationships, trust, and local knowledge allowed us to move beyond surface-level adjustments and into deeper alignment with our partners’ realities. The result was support that felt relevant, grounded, and genuinely useful for organisations navigating complex social, cultural, and financial challenges.
This year also marked the beginning of a new chapter in how LAFF operates. We initiated the transition toward a more locally rooted organisation by establishing a legal entity in Peru. This step strengthens our ability to collaborate with local actors, access national resources, and support our partners in ways that are more responsive and sustainable over time.
This transition is reflected in LAFF’s new visual identity, capturing a shift toward greater clarity, coherence, and confidence in who we are and how we work.
As we look ahead, this moment feels pivotal. It is a time to refresh our strategy, reaffirm our commitment to local leadership, and continue learning how to support access to education in ways that are both globally informed and deeply local.
