		<description><![CDATA["We were capable, We are capable." The slogan has repeated itself on government radio and television adverts throughout Argentina, which is celebrating 200 years since the 25th May revolution that eventually led to the country's independence on 9th July 1816. The natural question such a slogan begs, "of what exactly?" One assumes its independence from Spain. Yet two centuries later, though nobody's colony, many are still asking: How independent is Argentina really?]]></description>

Launched this month, they are committed to a ensuring that one day “every child in Argentina will receive a quality education”. Rather than targeting the policy makers or school administrators, they believe that by encouraging some of the country’s brightest graduates to teach for two years, they can transform the lives of children in some of Buenos Aires’ toughest schools.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tren Alma. This name probably doesn’t sound familiar to you, and yet, it’s one of the most established NGOs in Argentina. The story started in 1980. Some volunteers decided to get on a train to go to the north west of the country. Their aim was simple: to provide children with social and medical assistance; This year, the train celebrates its thirtieth birthday.]]></description>

A former Marxist activist and political prisoner, he left Iran at the age of 24, and spent time in prison in the United Arab Emirates.

		<description><![CDATA[We are sitting at the kitchen table of a quiet adobe house in the desert just above the town of Andalgalá in remote Catamarca, north-western Argentina. Seventy kilometres to the west, Alumbrera mine is in full operation, digging into the ground 24 hours a day. Alumbrera was sold to the people on the promise of bringing modernity to the little village. There would be new hospitals, schools, jobs and even a farfetched town-wide WiFi network. In one man’s words the people were promised “paradise”. But it never came.]]></description>

Some of the walls are missing, so that the hum of Villa 20 and cumbia music floats in and clashes with the crackle of ‘Baby I love your way’, spilling out of a dated radio.]]></description>
