A 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck Colombia, severely impacting education for thousands of children, particularly in rural areas. Over 3,200 schools sustained damage, with many children unable to attend classes due to lack of infrastructure and connectivity. In La Encharca, a remote village, students have not had classes since the quake, as the school awaits a safety assessment. In Pereira, 165 schools are in critical condition, leaving over 58,000 children temporarily out of school.
