Sem Diferenças E9G is a project developed under the National Programme “Escolhas 9.ª Geração” that aims to promote educational and social change in the medium term. By consolidating the work carried out by the schools, the activities promoting the acquisition of competences and personal, social and relational skills are intended to motivate the continuation of school attendance and, consequently, contribute to the reduction of school dropout.
The project aims to promote a set of activities aimed at children and young people from vulnerable socio-economic contexts with the aim of projecting significant improvements in their social integration and school promotion, facilitating more equal access to academic progression and promoting healthier lifestyles. It aims, as its ultimate objective, to support the creation of consistent and consequent life projects in a more promising future.
