Description

In response to the high levels of youth unemployment, the “Electric Circus” project contributes to the empowerment of 40 young NEETs residing in the Municipality of Porto, using circus arts as a tool to promote personal and social development, develop their soft skills, which will facilitate the social and labour inclusion of these young people. This training will encompass circus arts workshops, personal and social skills workshops and employability support workshops. Throughout the project, these young people will have an individualised psychosocial support office at their disposal, in order to promote their self-esteem, responsibility and initiative.
