Description
"Firm founded in 1996. Moleque de Ideias keeps a living environment where all children, youth and adults can create and manage their own projects. The organization emerges from the interests of each other, creating learning networks for the realization of ideas.
As each person is encouraged to develop his/her own creativity, the company's portfolio covers a wide range of possibilities. Under a monthly membership fee, children attend weekly to the space, bringing new ideas that inspire adults to develop projects that will help them in their creations. These projects, along with other ideas and demands brought up by adults, pass through a maturing process and possibly develop a commercial or even communal appeal.
Moleque de Ideias provides a wide range of technologies for regulars to explore their imagination and discover new knowledge. Along with the community around them, develop forms of urban agriculture, composting to study, invest in research on new interfaces and devices controlled by thought, RFIDs and outlets assisted by Augmented Reality, creating robots, among other initiatives that use technology , whether high or low tech, to empower people.
These approaches to new learning environments have a strong theoretical base, anchored in a vision of the network society, glocal (global + local), formed by people and groups who use technology to improve the quality of life for all."
