The project inhabits the space between Architecture-Art-Design-Urbanism to create a methodology of approach to the territory of Pevidém as a learning field. Directed to the transformation of the child, in its alterity and its connectivity with the ‘other,’ it aims to stimulate the existent space and time dynamics. This project is integrated into the ProChild CoLAB - a Portuguese nationwide consortium with a transdisciplinary approach dedicated to combating poverty and social exclusion in children from 0 to 10 years old.
