Arkema’s Post

Within the scope of the Plano Nacional das Artes (National Arts Plan), students at Escola Secundária José Estêvão, in Aveiro, worked on numerous inspiring themes, over the course of the school year that has just ended: from figures of mathematicians who have gone down in history, to posters from the 25 April revolution, passing by buildings that are symbols of famous cities. The works that resulted from these creative challenges, many of them large, were made on paper pulp supplied by The Navigator Company. This donation, like others that are part of the Company's Social Responsibility policy, expresses the commitment assumed in its corporate purpose: “We want to share with society not only our results, but also our knowledge, our experience and our resources in the search for a better future together". https://lnkd.in/d3sfuSb #TheNavigatorCompany #CorporateSocialResponsability #Community #PositiveImpact

Next week I am off for a YPO organized event to help Lurdes, a disabled woman, summit Portugal’s highest mountain…the stunning Pico volcano (2531m). I have launched a little fundraiser to benefit the foundation that is part coordinating the event. Associação Salvador . Those that know me recently, you know I am all about learning and teaching resilience. I find it so inspiring to be able to help a less able person overcome obstacles to fulfill a dream. Resilience in action. As with these things…it’s less about the challenge and Lurdes’ summit attempt, but the reflection that if we really want something, we can overcome the “disabilities” that hold us back from fulfilling our own dreams. With a small contribution you will not only support a non-profit that does great work here in Portugal, but plant a seed in your brain giving you a further nudge to overcome whatever maybe holding you back…be it big or small. I thank you in advance if you do decide to support. https://lnkd.in/ddp3hFdm

Today, #IndigenousPeoplesDay is being observed in the US (the international observance takes place on August 9). In #California, Governor Gavin Newsom issued a proclamation declaring October 9, 2023, as Indigenous Peoples' Day. As the proclamation states, "...Humankind as a whole currently finds itself in a battle to survive the existential threats of #climatechange, #incomeinequality, and #culturalunrest, and nowhere is this more starkly felt than in #Indigenouscommunities across the globe. These stressors are changing the world more rapidly than we can process or address and rendering the ancestral homelands of many virtually uninhabitable." Indeed, the story of the #Indigenouspeoples is of #resilience and their determination to self-govern and preserve identities, cultures, and ways of life, and highlights the need for collective action in meeting the challenge of #climatechange and ensuring a #JustTransition towards an #equitable and #sustainable future.

🔊 What were some of the most meaningful initiatives of ENAR Foundation in 2023 and why? 💡"Making sure that those voices which are marginalised in society actually are kept into account when it comes to developing policy initiatives, in terms of ensuring that they are fully part of the democratic life," Kim Smouter shared on Empowerment and Resilience Fund, one of ongoing initiatives powered up by ENAR Foundation.
