'Tinku' of the launch



A few weeks ago, in our institutional premises, we had the valuable presence of the Cajamarcan public who showed their appreciation for our work and their enjoyment of our books, in the presentation of “Coplita de los coplares- The singing of songs in peasant verses, inspiration of and authored by our brother Alfredo Mires, and the presentation volume 22 of our Peasant Encyclopaedia: "The why of the when." These presentations were entrusted to teachers Milton Gonzales Tafur and Yolanda Corcuera, who presented the gifts of these publications in a very lively manner and with great solvency.

For us, as an educational-cultural movement, each presentation of new books does not mean releasing more bibliographic material “to the market” as a commercial opportunity: for us, the most fruitful gain is the reading of these books, the traces they leave behind in each reader, both in the rural communities and in the cities, the recognition of the communities, the learning that children and young people obtain, the inheritance that we receive on each page from our people, from the people who know most.

Our Network sees the birth of each book as the hope of improving the world, recovering the dignity of people and perpetuating Andean knowledge.

Thank you very much to those who are always with us.
