The summer volunteer program Live it Lisboa! It is a non-profit, low-cost summer experience that aims to promote intercultural dialogue and social justice. The program has been directed since 2015 by a small independent development NGO, the Spin Association for Interchange, Training and Cooperation among Peoples.
What’s the contest?
It aims to be a responsible alternative for tourism in general and a significant way to spend summer vacations, since more than half of the time in the program is dedicated to intercultural activities and to return to the community of socially and economically challenged Bairro Padre , Cruz in Lisbon, Portugal.
