The first one was of 5.4 on the Richter Scale with its epicenter in the valley of the Laguna de Apoyo, 35 km south of Managua City. It caused comprehensive damage to dwellings and agriculture of peasant farmers in the area. The second earthquake was of 5.2 on the Richter Scale with its epicenter in the hills of the Coyote, affecting directly the city of Masaya and the Municipalities of San Juan de Oriente, Catarina, Dario, Diriomo, Niquinohomo y Nindirí. ACT members in Nicaragua responded immediately with their own resources to help the most needy in the crisis phase. The Lutheran Church of Nicaragua along with Centro Intereclesial de Estudios Teológicos y Sociales (CIEETS) are submitting a proposal to help the most vulnerable of the affected population with reconstruction of houses and income generating projects. The proposal comprises the following components: ¨ Food distribution ¨ Reparation of damaged houses ¨ Reconstruction of pottery and bakery kilns ACT is a worldwide network of churches and related agencies meeting human need through coordinated emergency response. The ACT Coordinating Office is based with the World Council of Churches (WCC) and the Lutheran World Federation (LWF) in Switzerland.

  • Memorial De Masaya, Julio Valle-Castillo
    III Masaya, primer grito de independencia Puerta de Masaya, según el dibujante de Squier, 1850. MASAYA INDEPENDENTISTA MASAYA INDEPENDENTISTA Por Julián N. Guerrero SUS VECINOS ESPAÑOLES Al comenzar el siglo XIX, Masaya contaba con una población de trescientos pardos; su numerosa pobla- ción indígena y los siguientes vecinos españoles que indudablemente dieron origen a las principales familias de hoy: Teniente Coronel don Luis Blanco, Capitán Juan Ignacio Barrios, Teniente don Máximo Avilez, el administrador de correos, don José Gregorio Bolaños, el Subdelegado del Partido don Manuel Esteban Avilez, el Teniente don Justo Abaunza, don José Beididea o Beibedea, don Leopoldo Ruiz Avilez, don Leoncio Echeverría, don Cayetano Noguera, don Luis y don Fermín Osorno, don Pablo Avilez, don Gregorio Marenco, don Francisco Esteban Matus, don Andrés Jamé y don Pons o Ponce. SITUACIÓN POLÍTICA Políticamente, durante la dominación española, la ciudad de Masaya formaba parte del partido de León, como consecuencia de la división política originada por la creación de la Intendencia, en virtud de las Ordenanzas Reales de 1786, siendo su Primer Intendente el Coronel don Juan de Aysa. El intendente Coronel Aysa propuso en 1788, la creación de nuevos partidos, creando entre ellos el Partido de Masaya, comprendiendo en esa demarcación: la ciudad de Masaya, como cabecera del Par- tido y los pueblos de Nindirí, Catarina, San Juan, Niquinohomo, Nandasmo, Jalata, Masatepe, Jinotepe y Diriamba. Desgraciadamente este proyecto del Coronel Aysa no tuvo aprobación oficial. GOBIERNO LOCAL Durante la época colonial los pueblos eran gobernados directamente por funcionarios de la Corona, con funciones para la recolección de tributos, colecta de impuestos, mantenimiento del orden, etc, etc.

Opportunities in Nicaragua eep in Central America, Nicaragua is a land of lakes, smoking volcanoes, and rocking chairs... Dthousands of rocking chairs. Nicaragua’s favorite item of furniture, there must be more rocking chairs here than in any other country throughout the world. How much would you pay for a quality rocking chair in the States—$100 or $200? In Nicaragua, you can find them for around $35. If you content yourself with just one, you could even carry it onto the plane—you can buy them disassembled. In fact, if you purchase any Nicaraguan product at home, you’re likely to be paying at least five times as much as what you could get them for locally and often a lot more. The fact that most artisans get monthly earnings of less than $100 for their work should tell you that you’re going to come across some incredible bargains here.

  • Nicaragua 2017
    HI – Federal Information –Nicaragua Country card – 2017 09 EN Nicaragua 2017 MANDATE Since 1997, HI has developed and strengthened the technical skills of partner organisations working in the field of disability in Nicaragua. After working in the country for 15 years, HI decided that the conditions were right to transfer the overall management of the project to its local NGO partner, Visíon Inclusiva, and to phase out its actions in Nicaragua. Visíon Inclusiva has been working in the field of disability since 2011. HI continues to support the organisation’s projects and to strengthen its autonomy. SITUATION Nicaragua is one of the poorest countries in Latin America and the Caribbean (125/188 HDI1). This poverty has caused serious health problems - cancer, cardiovascular problems, diabetes and high blood pressure - which are the leading causes of morbidity2 and mortality3 among adults in the country. An estimated 9% of people have diabetes and 25% have high blood pressure. Approximately 52% of people with diabetes also have high blood pressure4, For 2017 the ninth / fourteenth line of action of the Ministry of Health are chronic diseases. INITIAL ACTIONS Since 2004, HI and NGO Visíon Inclusiva (VI) have worked together, in partnership with decentralized structures of the Ministry of Health, clubs for people with diabetes and hypertension, and the “Fe y Esperanza” association of diabetics and hypertensive people (ADHFE)5 in the departments of Estelí and Masaya, where the incidence of disability is particularly high, and where chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure and arthritis are extremely high. In 2016 VI has started a new project to prevent diabetes in partnership with two universities in the department of León.
