Diana Yamileth Ayala Escobar
Siguatepeque,Comayagua, Honduras
Summary
I am an education specialist and advocate for integrating gender perspectives and promoting social inclusion of marginalized groups in education policies and laws. I have worked as a teacher in schools for children at social risk in the country, which has given me a deep understanding of the realities faced by children and youth in a nation recognized worldwide as one of the most dangerous. This experience motivated me to pursue a degree in pedagogy and transition into civil society work, where I specialized in monitoring and evaluation of projects. I am skilled in data analysis, advocacy for the human right to education, promoting girls' rights in rural areas, youth empowerment, and knowledge mobilization
