We are a very active association at local and international levels.
Some of the activities are:
1. MindGen. One of the most critical initiatives because it has an enormous impact besides being a long-term project. MindGen is an idea and initiative of adolescents that proposes Ted-like talks delivered by a group of diverse teens (speakers are typically between 13 and 17 y.o.) to the rest of the world. The aim is to enable young people to raise their voices on issues of utmost importance today in the space of more inclusion. In our group, we have people with disabilities, transgender, and a large variety of cultural, ethnic, religious and races. It translates into "Youth empowering youth. Youth supporting youth". The initiative has the backing of the Fuengirola council. The program addresses topics of the future, science, diversity, psychology, neuroscience, and ecology, among others.
So far, we have had two beautiful editions and are working on the third. We had 35 teenage speakers, 11 teenage organizers, two councillors from Fuengirola Council, and eight professional speakers who travelled from different cities in Spain to cooperate with us and me. We have an ongoing community of about 80 people. We create a diverse community that includes people with disabilities and various races, religions, nationalities, gender, generations and occupations.
From the group, some youth facilitators arise, and they support us (the association) in facilitating the process. It is a very successful local initiative with an ongoing community. PLIS is responsible for building the space, streamlining the process, empowering youth, holding the space and organising the whole process and event. We use mindfulness, embodiment, arts, awareness practices, emotional intelligence, community building process, reflective thinking, environmental support, and many other innovative learnings.
We had the nomination for social innovation prizes from the Malaga province.
Here are some articles about the experience:

2. PLIS has an official initiative for Erasmus + information in the City called “InfoEuropa”.
It is an initiative promoted by the Youth Council of Fuengirola Town Hall and offered by the PLIS Association and consists of a varied list of activities such as:
• Informative talks in educational centres
• Personalised advice in the Youth Department
• Dissemination of European mobility project opportunities
• Information on critical competencies and how the YouthPass works
• Pre and post-project mobility activities

3. “Empowerment and self-awareness” We run training for people with disabilities in soft skills for their professional development at ABAD association.
4. PLIS, using the same methodologies, have been collaborating with an N.G.O. that has programs for disadvantaged people, other entrepreneur’s communities, organizations and local initiatives.
5. We deliver programs in different universities where we work with university students and teachers on themes of interculturality, resilience, gender, and conflict transformation. (In Latin America, Germany, Sweden, Turkey, Lithuania, Rumania and Spain)
6. Community building activities. We create different events intending to gather the community around an intention. The last one was "1000 cranes for peace”, which we did with other partner associations simultaneously. We did for the year of the war. You can have more information here—and other meaningful local events.
7. Also, we receive mobilities, study visits, international training program experiences, job shadowing programs and learners in our adult centre. We are a sending organisations to different youth exchanges and training courses.
