Instituto Melo Cordeiro

Our mission is to promote real change in the quality of life for children and families in vulnerable situations, removing them from the risks of the streets and providing an environment of quality, respect, and happiness. We aim to genuinely integrate with communities, adapting our actions to the specific needs of each region where we operate, valuing local leadership and working closely with area specialists to ensure our initiatives are effective and sustainable. Our commitment is to build a better future by offering opportunities that empower and inspire children and their families to reach their full potential. Quality: We implement high-quality programs and services that meet the needs of communities, ensuring tangible and lasting results. Respect: We treat all individuals with dignity and respect, valuing their stories and cultures. Happiness: We believe that happiness is an essential component for the healthy and holistic development of children. Our activities are designed to create positive and stimulating environments. Community Integration: We work closely with local communities, recognizing and valuing their contributions and knowledge. Community integration is fundamental to the success and sustainability of our projects. Adaptation to Local Needs: We understand that each community has its own needs and challenges. We tailor our approaches to specifically and effectively address these realities, ensuring that our actions are relevant and impactful. Local Leadership and Experts: We value and support local leadership, working with specialists to develop and implement solutions that truly work for the community. Local leadership is essential for the continuity and success of our initiatives. This process is executed using psychopedagogical techniques applied in happiness classes, based on the "Theory of Happiness" by Tal Ben-Shahar, PhD. This theory seeks to understand and promote happiness and well-being. Individuals who experience higher levels of happiness tend to reap positive outcomes in various areas of their lives. The presence of positive emotions such as joy, gratitude, and contentment are encouraged during the application of this methodology, along with the strengthening of emotional resilience and the ability to cope with challenges. Happy individuals enjoy healthier and more satisfying interpersonal relationships, cultivating meaningful bonds. Food plays a critical role in the educational process. Proper nutrition is fundamental to the physical and cognitive development of children. Our program ensures that children receive nutritious meals, which support their concentration, memory, and overall academic performance. By providing regular, healthy meals, we create an environment where children can thrive, both in and out of the classroom. This focus on nutrition helps to reduce absenteeism and improve engagement, leading to better educational outcomes. Pedagogically, we use educational, socio-emotional, sports, cultural, environmental workshops, and other extracurricular activities to stimulate social participation of the attendees, developing their potential, self-esteem, and critical thinking regarding their social space and self-sustainability methods. This approach aims to enable them to act as multipliers of a transformation process within their community and other environments they join.
