The Happier Way Foundation has a partnership with As Descobertas that is a Portuguese Institute of Education and Pedagogical Investigation. You can see below some examples of work that is done by the students in the Arts Classes.
As Descobertas is a Portuguese Institute of Education and Pedagogical Investigation that was founded in 1978. It is an NGO for people who have disabilities with the mission to help them develop mental, cognitive, motor, and psychosocial competencies.
They work individually in areas such as education, rehabilitation, and personal development promoting a better quality of life to their 90 children and youngsters.
Using a human and technical spirit of constant innovation and the amazing dedication of their team they aim to bring happiness and affection to their students. By promoting a global service according to their student’s necessities, they foster an environment of equal opportunities for them.
The Arts Class’s main goal is to promote self-esteem and personal development through art. In an environment of union, sharing and equality we learn to manage our feelings and emotions with deep respect for each one’s individuality.
The art work done also allows for the exploration of fundamental themes for us to live in harmony with ourselves, each other and with the planet.
Palco da Tua Arte is a Youth Association from Cascais, Portugal that was born from a common passion of its founders – working with children and young people through arts and therapeutic projects.
The Palco da Tua Arte mission is to (re)integrate at risk children and young people using various art forms enabling healthy life choices that will lead them to live an independent and balanced life, as well as to learn to value their strengths.
They work towards a personal and artistic development guided by 3 pillars:
- Extra-curricular classes
- Fundraising events
- Life plans
Covid-19 has brought many challenges and difficulties but it also showed us that we need to keep walking the path that will lead us to an egalitarian world, where each one of us can have room to develop in full liberty. They now have a new class schedule with new faces and new opportunities for everyone that wants to explore their artistic skills and also be part of a community.
They are now starting to work on the 9 th  edition of their annual show that will take place in June. This is a very important event for all our members because it allows them to show in public the work that they have developed all year helping to build their self-confidence.
