• Mentes Empreendedoras

    Portugal has one of the lowest social participation rates in the European Union. By offering workshops to High school students all over Portugal we realized that there are 340.000 students eager to improve their communities but lack the encouragement, ecosystem and references.

    Mentes Empreendedoras fosters youth leadership, autonomy and talent development. By creating at schools a virtuous annual cycle, we inspire and support youth to implement their own entrepreneurial ideas to improve their communities and to be drivers of their own learning. The results attained are beacons of their potential for themselves and an inspiration for others.

    Our Youth Movement makes High School Students the drivers of their own social impact and learning by inspiring them to implement their own idea and by helping them developing and implementing a self-driven personal development plan.

    Our Intervention has 3 critical pieces:
    1 - We create Mentes Empreendedoras clubs in every high school we work in. Every group elects a coordinator that plays a group support and unifier role - servant leadership
    2 - We provide mentors that are from our team or Mentes Empreendedoras Leadership Fellows (University Students or Young Executives under 27).
    3 - We create a process that throughout the school years to inspire, structure and support the implementation of own ideas or projects to improve their community
