Manuela Ruiz

Manuela Ruiz, a 46-year-old woman from Lambayeque, returned to school 30 years after leaving in the fourth year of secondary education due to family responsibilities. Through the Education for Adults (EPA) program, she was able to complete her studies while working in an agroindustrial company. Her determination and support from her children helped her graduate from secondary school in June 2025, fulfilling a long-held dream and inspiring her to pursue further education in technical fields.
