About us

Proportional Message supports people with disadvantaged backgrounds through the development of humanistic education values, representing a way of enhancing the integral development of the individual, both personally and collectively.

01. We Create

We aim to contribute in the creation of educational environments, practices and research where the social, emotional and cognitive areas can be developed, to fulfil human potential. Our target groups are marginalised communities, elderly people, adults and families, as well people with disabilities. We develop activities aimed at meeting their needs, with a view to acquiring or deepening knowledge and skills.

02. We intervene

The intervention of Proportional Message is based on the belief that lifelong learning is a continuous process that must encompass all the dimensions of the individual and the practical knowledge acquired by all means. The access to quality education throughout life is a fundamental right to facilitate citizenship competences and the fully participation in society by all people.

03. We commit

Our association commits to have an active role on the global challenges of poverty, social and labour inequalities, education, environment, peace and civic engagement, by promoting campaigning and awareness raising through civil society. Also, we cooperate with local and national organisations in promoting initiatives to defend the rights and interests of Portuguese employers and employees, contributing to a constructive debate of ideas and needs of all interested parties.
