My name is Larissa, I'm 15 years old and a student of the King Albert I CEFFA (family farm school). I will tell the story of the Clean River project, which was created in 1998 by former student and current teacher of the Institute ´Dirceu Tardem´.
Hi! I'm here to tell the story of Mark, a 16-year-old who lives in a periphery of Teresina.
Mark committed a serious crime and by law, he must go through educational measures in order to repent, be socialized and get a second chance.
We discovered that the rural youth in Maranhão are facing lots of challenges and uncertainties between “leaving and staying” on the land.
Among the difficulties in remaining on the land are the limitations imposed by the restraints placed on land tenure, low family income and consequently poor investment in production; as well as the difficulty of accessing public policies. Rural youth face various challenges in attaining their aims to improve their living standard and gain access to public policies such as: Education, Healthcare, ATER, Internet and Housing.
How much to spend? This is a simple question, but not much thought is given to it and few people answer it. This causes indebtedness of business owners and the population to grow steadily, causing numerous problems for families and the economy. But remain calm! There is solution.
Urban mobility is a discussion involving various social spheres: while there are more cars and motorcycles in the streets, mobility becomes increasingly difficult. Mobility is the great challenge of contemporary cities in all parts of the world.
My name is Leopoldina Alves, ex-student and presently a monitor in the Lago da Pedra/MA Family Farm School. The conditions for farming are favourable, but there are limitations to accessing education and infrastructure. These limitations are the principal contributing factor to the migration of rural youth to other regions in search of employment.
Violence and Youth My name is Marcones. I am a member of the Community Youth Group and I am going to talk about violence and the creation of the Municipal Youth Council. Impoverished youth today are living in a situation of extreme violence. They are denied their civil rights and many of them are discriminated against on account of the district in which they live and of the colour of their skin. They are called the PPPs (poor, black (preto) and from the periphery). This is the profile of the youth who are living in the country today and make up the majority of those who are imprisoned.
