📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The Tlaxcala Cultural has as one the objectives to open spaces for citizen participation and at the same time to create spaces where young people can develop their artistic, social and educational skills. The Tlaxcala Cultural project intends to create a space for children and young people allowing them to recognize themselves and their environment through culture and art. It potentially represents an important point for parents and adults, in general, to become involved in the cultural education of children and youth through their participation and support in the various activities organized or encouraged by the project. In addition it serves as a space in which there is an out-of-school support to neighborhood children to level them in major subjects such as Spanish, Math and English. BILATERAL COOPERATION: NICE and AMVIAC are two associations that recognize the value of intercultural and educational aspects of international voluntary service and wish to address these aspects by making young people from Japan and Mexico to gathered around a common project in which they can get to know more about their cultures, educational habits and at the same time to contribute to the betterment of the place where the project will be carried out.
