ALUNMAPU PROJECT
PROJECT WITH SCOTIABANK IN VALPARAISO (CHILE)
Sport as a tool to combat any form of violence against children and adolescents
In Chile, the Barça Foundation and Scotiabank, in conjunction with the NGO ‘Paicabí’ are carrying out the Alunmapu project in the communities of Viña del Mar, Limache and Olmué (Valparaíso Region).
