AMBIENTE ATIVISTA

AMBIENTE ANTIVISTA

In April 2022, we launched the Ambiente Ativivista project with the tourism classes from Cinfães Secondary School, a sub-grant of the People & Planet Project (@waterofthefuture_org) represented in Portugal by the Marquês de Vila-Flor Institute (IMVF).

This was our first funded project, and it was an incredible experience working with young people from Cinfães!

Divided into two sessions per class (10th, 11th, and 12th grades), we used non-formal education to discuss climate change and the importance of water with the change-makers of the future: youth.

One of the outcomes included flyers created using collage and free-painting techniques, covering themes discussed in the sessions such as food waste, water waste, upcycling, and food and well-being.

The project concluded on July 1, 2022, with concerts by Tresmoças and Giovanni Trecco (@gitrecco) at Largo da Fontes do Amores. Additionally, the event featured a fire show and a new mural by The Caver (@_thecaver_), inspired by the words of the youth.
