OUR APPROACH

A HOLISTIC APPROACH THAT ADDRESSES REAL CHALLENGES

The Clap model integrates three elements that generate transformative change in young people. Nothing happens in isolation.

Centers as experience platforms

In no time, our "Claps"—a mix of learning workshops, library, and community game room—become their go-to place. It's from here that deep change begins.

Emotional and mental well-being

Often, our youth are broken. We know that the foundation of learning is strengthening them through experiences focused on mental health, support, and a nurturing community.

Immersive programs that truly build valuable skills

In all our programs—from the shorter ones that allow them to explore new disciplines to the more transformative ones that enhance their economic opportunities—learning is active, engaging, and personalized.

HOW WE DO IT

Our programs offer an immersive and deep process to learn skills that transform life trajectories.

CLAP TEENS

Our strategy for teens aged 12 to 18 promotes socio-emotional development and the learning of essential life skills that are often not taught in school. Everything happens through experiences where they find motivation and community.

CLAP RUTA

Our program for working-age young adults from 18 to 29 focuses on transforming their economic and life trajectories. Through an integrated experience designed with businesses, Ruta prepares them to grow and secure jobs with significantly higher earning potential.

"Clap is a free space to connect where you don’t need to fit in; you can simply be yourself. They are always there to help you with any problem or something you don’t know how to do but want to learn. And you can also help others and teach them too."

KEVIN, 14 years old.
