Innovation
What is your signature innovation, your new idea, in one sentence?
SPORT AND SOCIAL INCLUSION
Describe your innovation. What makes your idea unique and different than others doing work in the field?
THE IDEA IS TO USE SPORTS, IN THIS CASE SOCCER, TO GET YOUTHS OFF THE STREETS AND AWAY FROM CRIME, THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT HERE AT REAL FUTEBOL MIRIM WE USE THE WORD FAMILY CARE WHICH MANY YOUTHS DO NOT HAVE AT HOME.
What are the existing barriers, the biggest problem, your innovation is hoping to address/change?
THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS THAT YOUTHS WHO ARE DRUG USERS COME TO THE PROJECT, AND WITHOUT FINANCIAL SUPPORT IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO RECOVER THEM. BUT EVEN SO WE TRY. BUT IT IS A TOUGH BATTLE.
Delivery Model: How do you implement your innovation and apply it to the challenge/problem you are addressing?
WE ARE ALREADY APPLYING IT SINCE 1994. WE HAVE BEEN OFFERING THIS PROJECT FOR 13 YEARS AND WE CAN SAY THAT THROUGH SPORTS WE HAVE SAVED SEVERAL LIVES, BY SEPARATING THEM FROM DRUGS AND CRIME.
How do you plan to grow your innovation?
OUR PROJECT IS UNDERWAY AND WE HAVE ANOTHER UNDER DEVELOPMENT THAT WILL REACH APPROXIMATELY 3500 YOUTHS AND INDIRECTLY 8000 PEOPLE (FAMILY MEMBERS)
