Calouste Gulbenkian FoundationThe Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation launched the Gulbenkian Academies for Knowledge in May 2018 – a skills promotion movement so that today’s children and young people are able to face a rapidly changing future. The time has come to present the results of this initiative that reached more than 50,000 young people under-25 years of age through 100 projects distributed throughout the country promoted by non-profit organizations that have developed new skills.
This event will also serve to promote the debate on how social and emotional skills are related to various current issues.
