The key to The Corner Project's approach to improving the educational level of this rural Mexican municipality is community. Though Malinalco may lack many resources, it has a vital source of strength which has disappeared from many parts of the world: a well-functioning community. Thus, the support that Malinalco has shown for improving the educational opportunities for community members is the most valuable component of any project undertaken. The Corner Project is committed to serving Malinalco, and all projects are initiated in response to expressed community needs.
