Contribute to the educational development of minors at risk of exclusion through the implementation of technology that supports socio-educational intervention programs after school hours.
MISSION
VISION
• Establish a solid relationship of trust with the sponsors / donors based on the evidence of the efficiency in the use of economic resources and in the return at a social level that extra-curricular educational programs generate.
• Offer an open platform with digital activities of proven quality that guarantee a better response to the needs of minors within the context of socio-educational intervention after school hours.
• Existence of a collaboration network of entities that develop support programs for minors at risk of exclusion to share experiences and good practices in all areas.
VALUES
Collaboration We promote the open exchange of ideas, practices and resources between different cultures and social and educational agents as a formula for achieving synergies that enrich personally and professionally, and increase the quality of the intervention.
Efficiency We have the ability to manage resources and skills in a balanced and flexible way, achieving the greatest impact on the development of children through digital projects.
Innovation Technology is necessary to bridge the digital divide and to provide new digital tools. It would be expensive to incorporate traditional arts and science programs without the use of technology. Also, we are investing resources to incorporate digital components in project-based learning and emotional intelligence in order to increase the motivation of minors.
Opportunities We believe that minors at risk should have the same possibilities for their integration, participation and social well-being. We work for equal opportunities especially in education to promote healthy social and personal development.
