Ckara Ckara is high up in the andean high lands, seperated from the nearest city by hours of driving over a rough and windy road. There are eleven communities in the zone. Homes are crowded together in small communities, braced against the cold that rules the region for months on end. Nearby the community of Ckara Ckara is an area known as "Canchas Blancas" or "White Fields". It was named after the ice that covers it and turns it white during the cold months.

Ckara Ckara is far away from hospitals and medicines. This, along with the cold climate, means that mortality rates are high. Education is only available up to the 8th grade. After that, students must go to Sucre for their studies.

FHI has been in Ckara Ckara since 2002.
