Comunidades que Florescem focuses in promoting youngsters’ and young adults’ personal development by approaching it on a humanistic fashion. Our main targets’ ages range from 13 to 30. Through non-formal education, we instil social change, by creating conditions for everyone to contribute, by stimulating critical thinking and by: - Giving voice to young people, including those with fewer opportunities, and thoroughly assessing their needs; - Valuing young people’s ideas, talents and concerns and building our actions based on their inputs; - Creating spaces to promote young people’s personal, social and emotional development; - Encouraging civic and democratic participation in either conventional and non-conventional forms; - Addressing young people’s issues and having them involved in creating adequate and positive responses to tackle them; - Rasing community’s awareness for those issues and establishing a common-ground for civil society to cooperate on their resolution; - Holding dear to European, democratic values and applying them in every aspect of our interventions; - Valuing meaningful dialogues and interactions among individuals and organisations so they can restore lost connections, create new ties and cooperate towards the change they want to see; - Transversally applying measures to ensure inclusiveness and non-discrimination in every action we take part of; - Demonstrating the value of solidarity in social and individual growth.
