Magis Americas is a Jesuit development non-governmental organization committed to promoting sustainable and impactful responses to the injustices faced by those living at the margins in the areas of education, migration, and ecology.
Magis Americas is particularly invested in education, as we believe it is the most powerful tool to break the fateful cycle of poverty, inequality, and exclusion. Alongside partners, such as Fe y Alegría, we are committed to promoting inclusive and equitable quality education opportunities for individuals living in marginalized and impoverished communities across Latin America and the Caribbean, or as Fe y Alegría founder Fr. José María Vélaz would say, “where the asphalt ends”.
Magis Americas’ work is guided by, and operates in respect of, the following principles: human dignity, justice, solidarity, and transparency.
