A new Community Centre for Coroado!

The new community Centre of Coroado will be buit where today is the administrative centre.

Hello MAIS UMs


The end of the year is full of good news for the Community of Coroado.


The idea of a Cultural Centre grew into a new Community Centre full of other activities!


We are meeting up with the community leaders and local volunteers to help making the dream of Coroado leaders to become a reality. 


The Community Centre of Coroado will be a space for administrative, social and educational activities and will also host activities which promote entrepreneurship within the community. 


We invite you to take part on building this so important space which will bring so many benefits to the people of Coroado.

Coroado's Cultural Centre

Hello MAIS UMs!

In a workshop which happened in May earlier this year, many ideas came about from the   participating volunteers. 

Following up on those ideas, one quickly started to take shape: the idea of transforming the Community Centre (picture above) in a Cultural Centre for the Community of Coroado.

We are now busy developing the project of the Cultural Centre based on the volunteers inputs from the "Workshop+1" and soon we will be publishing more news about it! We are very excited about it and very much looking forward to make it happen!


Stay tuned!

First Workshop+1 : Results

Hello MAIS UMs!

We are very happy to announce that our first Workshop +1 was a success!

It happened on the 2nd of May in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and it was attended by professionals of many areas with the support of the University Estácio de Sá, to which we would like to express our sincere gratitude for all the support.

The Workshop+1 aimed at generating new ideas for possible projects to be developed and implemented in Coroado. During three hours, we managed to achieve our goal, debating the  problems faced by the community. The result was the generation of great ideas and the excitement of the professionals present on the day.

MAIS UM would like to thank hugely the opportunity to be with all this amazing crowd of educators, managers and specialists in development and would like to invite all to stay together, follow up on the results of the workshop and make a difference with us!

The documentation of the event is available in the portuguese version of our website. Click on the photo (or here) to see the picture
