Introduction:

In Brazil there are marginal places where there can be evidence of various vulnerations to sectors of the population, one of these sectors of population are children and childhood in general as processes of development and identity conformation. So many projects were the purpose of being a support in this stage of life, especially in this part of world, which has one of the highest levels of inequality.

About the association

"AMBDB" is an association that makes different interventions with the children’s in favelas, in this interventions the integral and multidisciplinary education is a fundamental pillar in the argument and focus of this association. Through various training teams, children can develop their various intellectual and cognitive skills that will allow them to project their future beyond their reality of favelas.

My work experience

During the 6 weeks spend 16 hours for each of the weeks to work with children, where I was allowed to relate to them in a personal way, trying to insert me into their expectations and projects to do an analysis of development of the workshops and focus of the project, due to this not exist a dress code assuming a greater comfort of the children to see a common person and not related with an organization. We developed these workshops inside of different houses destined to voluntary works that were made in the favelas of Brazil. The work group that I’m inserting is formed by different professionals, such as professors, social workers, psychologists and lawyers. So I can learn about my future career (social work) and all the process and changes can make.

General comments

This experience bring me a hit of reality and have a positive impact in my professional life, because I could work with an aspect of life that for me is the most important process for a human being. I recommend this experience to students that wants to work with childhood and their development, the association give all the tools for expand the minds of people that work with them.  

Conclusion

In conclusion, we can see in these interventions the roots of the identity and satisfactory way to grow up with a conscience of being someone in life without an importance of the place that you come from.
