Caballos, chaval@s y la madre tierra

On the 9th of March 2017 in the Fundación Casa de los Tres Mundos took place a concert of music from America and Europa. One of the main musicians was Paul Baker, originally from Scotland, who initiated the project “Caballos, chaval@s and la madre tierra” here in Nicaragua.

This program, to which all proceeds from the concerts will be donated to, is based on the following principle: “The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated” (Gandhi), adding: “and its children” ( Ecos del Silencio). In this sense, mistreated animals and children who are victims of abuse meet on an ecological farm and can experiment together moments of interaction; they learn the importance of trust and social cohesion; and how to respect and look after their fellow human beings. “Caballos, chaval @ s y la madre tierra” is committed to a secure and sustainable future for everybody, where animal cruelty and child abuse are things of the past. More information about this project can be found here.
