"EMPOWERING WOMEN THROUGH
EDUCATION AND LEADERSHIP”
PSYDEH | MEXICAN NON PROFIT ORGANIZATION
PSYDEH A.C. is an award-winning Mexican grassroots non-profit organization with national and international reach.
Our needed work links adult leader training and citizen education with human rights-based community organizing and local-led, high impact project production. Our goal? Empower Mexican citizens and their communities to lead the bottom-up, sustainable development of their own marginalized areas.
We currently work together with indigenous women to solve their own local problems in the four indigenous municipalities of the Otomí-Tepehua region of Hidalgo, central Mexico.
2022 CROWFUNDING CAMPAIGN
$12,763 USD to go!
This $15,000 USD crowdfunding campaign raises the required flexible funds we need to build with Indigenous women partners what we call the Sierra Madre network of four cooperatives through 2024 while reinforcing the progress we have made in previous years.
