Vila is a project for a school, which is developing a pedagogical model and an innovative curriculum aiming to contribute to a sustainable and collaborative society. The goal is to provide an educational experience in which children and young people can live creatively, committed and participatory lives and be critically aware of themselves and the world, in a happy and free manner.
Since 2020, the Vila has a class of elementary school children experiencing learning in an urban community in Lisbon with community gardens, agro-forestry, a park, a room, and the neighborhood gym. In order for Vila to be a school, a licensed building is required. The proposed investment aims to purchase a building with green spaces in the neighborhood where the project is located in order to open a sustainable school of reference, which aims to cover all cycles of education, from kindergarten to high school.
The funds raised through this campaign will be used to purchase the property to establish the school. The space will provide full schooling for the children already enrolled in the project, as well as welcome many more, including those on the waiting list.
The plan is to raise €500,000 through four campaigns of €125,000. The first two campaigns will be aimed at financing the acquisition of the property and the last two at developing the facilities.
Environmental sustainability, emotions and interpersonal relationships, human rights, gender equality, arts and crafts, multiculturalism, and learning through community projects of social and ecological innovation, are curricular pillars to be developed by a multidisciplinary team, gathering as key references practices from learning communities, High Scope, Waldorf pedagogy, Social-Emotional and Ethical Curriculum (SEE Learning), and Green School.
Building of an accessible and inclusive school: 500m2 of a building will be renewed to receive the school facilities, with pre-school, 1st and 2nd cycles. Furthermore, there is potential to expand to the 3rd cycle and secondary education.
Access to quality education, collaborative and for sustainability: 150 (first phase up to 2nd cycle) to 300 children and young people (with 3rd cycle and secondary) with access to a pedagogical model focused on project-based learning, with Waldorf and social-emotional and ethical practices, and of social-ecological innovation, with the main pillars of gender equality and human rights, multiculturalism, participation and community. Also, 14 teachers periodically participate in trainings in social-emotional curriculum, non-violent communication, practices for Learning Communities, Waldorf pedagogy, gender equality and human rights.
Promotion of equal education: focus on the promotion of Gender Equality as a pillar of pedagogy, and on equality in the choice of professions, areas of interest, life projects and sport.
Promotion of community empowerment and resilience activities: a community of 3000 people in one school cycle is impacted through extracurricular programmes in community garden and agroforestry. The school curriculum strengthens values of collaboration and sustainability.
Promotion of environmental responsibility: the school implements environmentally responsible practices such as eco-friendly materials, composting, dry toilet, green roof, water reuse systems and use of renewable energy.
Promotion of entrepreneurship and social innovation: the school as a Hub for social and ecological impact projects for real learning contexts.
Job creation: 6 new full-time jobs will be created with the expansion of the school structure, among them head and assistant teachers, and complementary functions to the operation of the school.
