LEARNING, SHARING, GROWING
Celebrating more than 25 years of associative work
Since 1994, Project New Discoveries has offered transformational learning experiences for groups that connect people of all ages and backgrounds with each other and with nature. From our roots working towards social justice and inclusion, we have expanded our work to offer education for sustainability and regeneration in our new space at Quinta Vale da Lama farm.
Dear Projecto Novas Descobertas Friends and Community,
In light of the situation we are currently experiencing and respecting all the measures that our country’s government has taken in relation to COVID-19, Projecto Novas Descobertas has made the decision to close all its educational and social activities until further notice.
Since our action involves creating learning experiences that redraw our impact on the world and the community, WE WILL CONTINUE working behind closed doors to support our community, investing in creative actions to reach you through other interactive online channels: inspiring, supporting, communicating and entertaining you with the spirit that always motivates us. Because THE PROBLEM WILL SURELY BE THE SOLUTION and an opportunity for everyone to reinvent themselves
We are keeping an eye on the Government’s announcements and as soon as possible we will open our doors to the public again.
We will have to change some dates for our next activities. We will communicate these dates as soon as possible.
Thank you for all that each one of you is already doing to take care of each other during this challenging period.
The team,
Projecto Novas Descobertas
