"Save and start", is a program of social, financial and entrepreneurship education for girls, boys and young people of limited resources between 6 to 18 years of age. EDUCA, through this program, promotes creativity, leadership and entrepreneurship in them through the development of skills that allow them to improve their quality of life and their community.
Challenge
In Mexico, according to UNICEF data, around 4.7 million children and adolescents are in extreme poverty. In this context it is very important to promote the entrepreneurial spirit in this sector of the population. Through the development of social and entrepreneurship skills, it will allow them to promote changes in the economic, social, educational and cultural reality of their communities.
Long-Term Impact
We will educate 3, 530 students that will develop social, participation and entrepreneurial skills. They will develop life skills through a methodology in which they are placed at the center of the teaching and learning process so that they can participate actively in order to transform their knowledge and attitudes and finally behaviors.
