Aldeias Infantis SOS supports 60 young people per year in Manaus, providing assistance to those in high social vulnerability. The initiative offers computer classes, career guidance, empowerment activities, sports, and leisure, collaborating to foster their personal and professional growth. Many face barriers to education and employment. By offering a safe and welcoming space with skill-building opportunities, the program collaborates to create a better future for them.
In Amazonas, 273,000 young people aged 15 to 29 face challenges that hinder their development and access to the job market. Most families live on minimal income and have limited access to quality education. Many reside in precarious housing and rely on government aid. The state also recorded 156,000 illiterate individuals aged 15 and older in 2023, highlighting its educational challenges. These barriers limit their opportunities in the job market.
The project supports 60 adolescents and young people aged 14 to 24 in Manaus per year, offering psychosocial guidance to help them build their life plans and develop essential skills. It also provides job market preparation, including workshops, resume writing, and lectures. To strengthen their qualifications, the initiative offers computer classes, covering Microsoft Office and advanced content, expanding their opportunities for professional inclusion and a better future.
The project collaborates for lasting social and economic change by empowering young people in Amazonas with skills and knowledge to break the cycle of poverty. Through psychosocial support, job market preparation, and computer classes, it increases their chances of securing stable jobs and achieving financial independence. In the long term, it reduces youth unemployment and social vulnerability, strengthens community development, and fosters a more skilled and resilient society.
