Is it possible to learn through theater, arts, and games? The Platô organization proves that it is possible. With an innovative approach, the initiative proposes interdisciplinary learning experiences that connect art, technology, and active methodologies to make education more lively, enchanting, and meaningful.
Now Platô is launching the Escola do Impossível Philanthropic Fund, which is financially managed by Sitawi. The initiative expands the reach of educational and cultural projects that inspire and transform. More than promoting pedagogical innovation, the fund acts as a powerful climate education strategy, encouraging an active, creative and responsible relationship between children and young people and the world around them.
Through schools, Platô connects research, pedagogical practice and social transformation. The fund will support programs that spark curiosity, stimulate critical thinking and value the leading role of children and young people — especially in vulnerable territories.
“The Impossible School Fund was born from the urgent need to think and provide education in a different way. We need to create paths that strengthen imagination as a tool to face the challenges of the present and prepare new generations for fairer, more regenerative and inclusive futures. It is not enough to teach content: we need to activate questions, provoke thought and foster the protagonism of children and young people.”, says Francine Kliemann, founder and director of Platô Cultural and programmatic manager of the Fund.
The Impossible School Fund aims to inspire a new perspective on the act of learning. Because learning can (and should) be enchanting, accessible and transformative. It is in this spirit that the fund will promote educational experiences that cross the real and the imaginary, uniting art, technology and critical thinking as pillars to form conscious, creative and engaged citizens.
“Funds like Escola do Impossível show the power of philanthropy when combined with innovation and purpose. At Sitawi, we combine our specialized financial management with our commitment to social impact to facilitate the operation of these funds, allowing transformative initiatives to focus on what really matters: changing realities.”, highlights Yananda Lima, Coordinator of Partnerships and Development in Philanthropy Management at Sitawi.
