La Silla Roja de Fe y Alegría Ecuador

“The Red Chair that transforms lives”

Abstract

La Silla Roja is a campaign that has crossed borders to defend the right to education for the over 260 million children and youth worldwide who are still out of school. Faced with this reality that affects and questions us, Fe y Alegría Ecuador joins the initiative of Entreculturas – Fe y Alegría Spain and promotes this right with the slogan “la silla que transforma vidas” (the chair that transforms lives).

La Silla Roja (a red chair) is a symbol of the right to inclusive, participatory, integral, supportive and quality education for all, especially for the population in a situation of vulnerability and exclusion. It seeks to lead to reflection to the students of the participating schools, from the conviction that education multiplies the opportunities for development of all people.
