More information about El Menco

EL MENCO COMMUNITY

Rivas, Nicaragua

El Menco is located at the municipality of Buenos Aires, department of Rivas, 95 kilometers from the capital of Managua. It is one of the poorest communities of Buenos Aires.

BASIC INFRASTRUCTURE

This community does not have electricity or any kind of telecommunication.

Healthcare is poor. There is a tiny health center located at the entrance of “El Jenízaro” at the east side of the community, but it is always undersupplied. In case of emergency people have to travel 20 kilometers to Rivas – a long trip taking into consideration that there is not an ambulance or vehicles in the community.

There is only one primary school in the area, but it is too small to educate all of the children in the area.

There is no potable water on this community; forcing the people to drink untreated lake water or water from questionable hand dug wells.

Many of the homes in the community don’t have sanitary facilities, and most of those that do are saturated with solid waste. Most of the people do their necessities on land.

One hundred percent of the estimated 200 homes in the community are made of impermanent materials that allow the rain and critters to come into the house at all times. There is a high level of respiratory and urinary track infections in the community due to the poor housing and sanitary conditions.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

Most of habitants don’t have a permanent job and live of fishing from the Great Lake (Cocibolca) and cattle farming.

The average income of a family in el Menco is less than $40 per month.

Due to the desperation, the community is selling lake sand to survive, creating an ecological problem.

POTENTIAL

Relatively good all weather roads to access the community
Availability of water for irrigation and human consumption.
Young population
Low possibilities for natural disaster
High possibilities to receive specialized services
Recognized agricultural abilities
High tourism potential
