The Net Program, Vaga Lume Association, Brazil
The Net is an Education for Sustainable Development initiative that promotes intercultural dialogue between teenagers from rural communities in the Amazon and the city of Sao Paulo. Briefly, it is a one-year cycle of workshops in which teenagers discuss their cultural identity and local environment. They write letters and produce crafts that are exchanged between pairs of institutions. Its goal is to foster respect for cultural diversity among teenagers by building cross-cultural understanding while stimulating competencies like empathy, critical thinking, decision-making and leadership. Thus, teenagers are expected to be in a better position to be active and responsible citizens.
