A Precinct with a Cause - Education and inclusion of children and youth. Continuing this innovative project depends on your help.

Mundos de Papel (MdP) and the Polícia de Segurança Pública (PSP) have been promoting, in partnership and since the beginning of the year, in Oeiras, a pilot and innovative project, which responds to a need felt by many: using an approach of proximity and concerted intervention, to strengthen relations between the PSP and the community, in particular with children and young people from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds. This perspective is pioneering as it develops within the police station itself and integrates PSP agents into the team who daily participate in activities, interacting with young people.

The project has contributed to a real demystification of prejudice, maintaining safety, preventing risky or deviant behavior, strengthening personal and social skills, and generally educating for the right and citizenship. If, on the first day of the project, 3 young people entered the squad activity room suspiciously, after 6 months, 10 run and challenge agents for a playstation or ping-pong duel.

The team is multidisciplinary and has a psychologist and art therapist, a sociologist and two full-time PSP agents.

For the continuity of a highly innovative project, for the possibility and interest in its replication to other squads of the country, help us.

Contribute to building ever more consistent bridges between security forces and the community!

About the author

The Mundos de Papel Associação was officially incorporated in January 2019. It includes a group of professionals, but above all, people aligned with the purpose of making a difference in the community, having joined forces to create impact and generate social value in the county of Oeiras. Mundos de Papel thus believes in the role that each one plays in the world, both individually and collectively, in a social space that belongs to everyone.

Our main objective is to enhance the role of vulnerable children and young people in the individual and social world, minimizing risk factors and promoting inclusion and social cohesion.

Budget and due dates

The project, which in 6 months has already developed over 250 activities (inside and outside the police station), involved more than 65 young people, 25 PSP agents, dozens of families, local community and several partners (Padre António Oliveira Educational Center, among others), risks closing at the end of the year. It is only in the middle of next year that financial support from the local state and other funding is foreseen, which is why we urgently need support for the first four months of the year. We need € 25,000 to guarantee the cotinuity of this project.
