About the goals of Santa Maria de Feira
For SMF the main goal is to create a connector, an inspiring space for young people, which should be a collaborative space, supportive and nurturing working environment. An informal but stimulating place to work, meet, learn, and connect. A place oriented to integrate and to guide young people in risk of drop out school to the labor market. In the end, a place designed to promote young peoples’ soft skills, employability as well the growth of self-employment and start-ups.
