PROJECT COORDINATOR

 

The Association for Equality AEQUALITAS is an NGO that was born in October 2020 in Lisbon (Portugal) from the commitment of a group of people to a more just and sustainable world. Our main objective is to achieve social equity by promoting the rights and specific interests of minorities and the most disadvantaged groups through the creation and implementation of projects and initiatives that contribute to the empowerment of our target.

 

AEQUALITAS aims to promote cultural diversity and fight for access to social and human rights that guarantee personal and social well-being, as well as promoting active citizenship by encouraging citizens to carry out their personal projects, always upholding the values ​​of respect, solidarity and service. We want to guide and connect people and entities that fight for human dignity through innovative methodologies and non-formal education in order to unify efforts and promote solidarity work.

 

Our mission is to promote a more egalitarian, fair and sustainable society, empowering people who live in the least favoured sectors and participating in the development processes of the community, the country and internationally, promoting actions that address the different problems of each territory.

 

In short, we are an active, agile and innovative social organization that responds proactively to the challenges that arise, developing projects and initiatives that help those most in need. We stand out above all for the dedication, capacity and altruism of our members, committed to the development of society and respect for the environment.

 

WHO WE WORK WITH

 

When we speak of minorities and disadvantaged groups, we want to highlight that there are various factors that can affect the life of each individual, adding barriers to access and exercise their rights, and that these factors can be cumulative. In this sense, we take as a starting point the work with children and young people, since we firmly believe that they are the future of our societies and a crucial starting point when it comes to fighting inequalities.

 

In addition to the problems that today's young people have to face for the mere fact of being young, we consider that each individual is unique and that there may be other factors that aggravate these problems. In this sense, we want to treat each particular situation with special attention, and recognize the differences between the various groups.
