Fondation Pedagogia

The Pedagogia Foundation aims to promote research, implementation, and development of innovative pedagogies that aim for the balanced and harmonious development of children in the following areas: a. Identity: autonomy, personal skills and abilities, self-esteem, creativity, spiritual, philosophical, and critical thinking, relational and emotional intelligence; b. Relationships: living together, respect, cooperation, solidarity, and mutual aid, leadership, and trust, authenticity, and peace; c. Knowledge: scientific knowledge, practical skills, and artistic abilities. The foundation works through all available means to facilitate the creation, development, and access to training programs based on innovative pedagogies that respect and center the child, seeking their development and full potential. This includes: a. Active pedagogies, new pedagogies, pedagogies of trust, project-based pedagogies, etc.; b. Nature-based pedagogies, farm schools, pedagogical farms, and other approaches to sustainability; c. Specialized and inclusive pedagogies that provide adequate education for children with specific needs (disabilities, learning difficulties) without exclusion. In pursuit of its goals, the foundation develops and finances scientific research, think tanks, conferences, scholarships, educational materials, and infrastructure adapted to the development of pedagogical innovations. It can also support external projects and structures that concretely implement these pedagogical innovations, both public and private. In relation to this goal, the foundation can acquire, sell, transform, lease, or rent buildings, parts of buildings, construct buildings, and enter into contracts of an immovable or movable nature. It can collaborate with other foundations, associations, or institutions pursuing the same goal. The foundation's capital and any profits are exclusively dedicated to the above-mentioned purpose. The foundation does not pursue any lucrative activities; volunteering and financial sacrifice are integral to its functioning. It exclusively aims for the common good and general interest. It promotes social justice, equal opportunities, equity, and solidarity.
