Agrupamento de Escolas Terras do Ave (AETAVE), is a cluster of 10 schools established in 2000–2001 in Vila Nova de Famalicão, Northern Portugal, with 1503 students spanning preschool, primary, and secondary levels. Dedicated to providing quality education, fostering inclusivity, and supporting holistic student development, our organization addresses diverse needs, including social, economic, geographical, and disability-related barriers.

Our key activities involve implementing student-centered pedagogical practices, school clubs, and active participation in European projects. Over 58% of students receive financial aid amid the region's economic challenges. We prioritize investments in IT solutions, incorporating STEAM and CLIL approaches, and initiatives like "Anima uma história" to enhance reading and comprehension skills through technology.

With a primary focus on students at all levels, especially those facing barriers, we strive for equal educational opportunities and personal development support. Our application for the Quality Label signifies a steadfast commitment to conducting high-quality solidarity activities aligned with European Solidarity Corps principles. It goes beyond recognition, representing our pledge to drive positive transformation within our local community. By formalizing our dedication, we actively contribute to a diverse network of organizations dedicated to fostering solidarity, inclusivity, and sustainable development at the grassroots level.
