The most important elements of Coia

PROTAGONIST PARTICIPATION

The right of children and adolescents to PARTICIPATE in the CONSTRUCTION of their VILLAGE or CITY as part of an ACTIVE CITIZENSHIP, so that they are participants and executors of the changes in their surroundings.

For that role to exist, CHILDHOOD and ADOLESCENCE must reflect on their surroundings (the space in which they unfold their lives), their context and propose solutions for change, that is to say, become aware of what it means to be a subject of law and the importance that their participation can have as an engine of change in the rest of society.

The new generations, the inhabitants of tomorrow, do not know their town or city in its entirety, they live in a “small box”, they move to another smaller “box” and arrive at a bigger “box” (it’s called a school, shopping centre, sports centre, .. or playground). This is your relationship with your environment.

Colour your city

The town or city in which we are working has been turned into a game board, a laboratory of experimentation where girls, boys and teenagers can act from a new point of view.
