Fundación País Seguro — Cotona Antibalas

In Chile, 218 children have been killed in the last 10 years near their schools by stray bullets from drug traffickers. In this tragic reality, the most affected areas have not been heard in their demands for security and justice. Fundación País Seguro, together with mothers of the victims, used Chile's most popular school garment to make a bulletproof school uniform. At one of the schools with the highest number of deaths, a child attended wearing this bulletproof uniform, having an immediate impact in the country. In this way, the bulletproof school uniform became a symbol of struggle that allowed mothers to be heard for the first time.
