The Pescar Project is a socio-professional training program developed by the Pescar Project Foundation, in partnership with its collaborative network, to provide access to the world of work for young people in vulnerable social situations, aged between 16 and 19 years old. GO Eyewear Tocantins has been contributing to the social and professional training of young people in the city of Palmas/TO, strengthening family and social bonds, reducing violence rates and preparing young people for the labor market.
Each class of the Initiation Course in Optical Assembly Processes lasts 11 months, during which the young people are empowered through values such as: Self-knowledge, Citizenship, Democracy and Ethics, Entrepreneurship, in addition to practical disciplines focused on the field of optical assembly. At the Projeto Pescar GO Tocantins unit, since its inception in 2016, 24 young people have been trained; of these, 14 have had the opportunity to be hired after completing the course.
We firmly believe that education and work are essential pillars for building a better future. Therefore, the social assistance organization partners with partners to offer free Professional Introduction courses. We prioritize the training and human development of adolescents and their families, seeking to strengthen citizenship and contribute to building a more supportive society. Together, we can promote transformative attitudes both in individuals and organizations, for a more just and inclusive world.
