49. Instituto Paid?ia
Instituto Paid?ia is a Brazilian based organization whose mission is to reduce social and economic inequality by improving the quality of education offered to children and youth by public schools, transforming them into communities of learning.
What we do: We believe that Brazil?s low-income youth must have the knowledge and skills to effectively manage their lives, solve their communities? problems and enter the
modern, competitive job market. Only with these tools in hand, will Brazil?s citizens be empowered to break its historical cycle of poverty.
Our unique approach transforms public schools from within. We partner with those responsible for schools to help them
improve their curricula and instruction in math and literacy courses. With a focus on enhancing students? critical thinking, expression and problem-solving abilities, our approach improves students? academic performance and creates an environment in which students, parents and educators become excited about the learning process.
We are committed to developing more than academic skills. Partnering with schools, businesses and community organizations, we give low-income youth the rare opportunity to participate in extracurricular activities and first-jobs programs. Youth gain a sense of belonging, exposure to
positive role models, higher self-esteem as well as learn and practice invaluable life and job skills such as team-work, discipline, citizenship, leadership, self-expression and
entrepreneurship.
