THE N.A.V.E Center for
Reception and Valorization of Education is a socio-educational project of
social intervention which aims to welcome educate and awaken citizenship and
critical sense in children and young people from the periphery encouraging
their protagonism in society. Our audience is children and teenagers aged 4 to
14 from the Capão Redondo region São Paulo - SP where we currently serve 110
students from Monday to Friday after school.
 
Currently within our
routine we serve these children and adolescents with a focus on popular
education based on autonomy and affection where our students can feel free
empowered and complete with their existence and protagonism within society. We
work with the understanding that the mind and heart are in constant interaction
and are necessary backgrounds for the construction of knowledge be it
cognitive social or emotional.
 
The NAVE in Future project
aims to offer four different types of workshops English IT Capoeira and
Percussion so that they can interact with each other creating a balanced
routine between more technical and more playful teaching. The choice of these
workshops comes from the idea of training young people assisting in their
educational and professional process without excluding creative development
and defending our idea that creative young people are more committed and
engaged young people.
