WHY AN APP?

We want to build an environment free of discrimination and totally free, where health professionals and various specialists in fields such as exercise are present, so that young people can have several opportunities in one space.
We want to create a space where young people not only learn a little about emotional health and good habits, but also manage to achieve these with various activities.

HOW THESE ISSUES ARE TREATED IN COLOMBIA?

Nine out of 10 Colombian students do not consume fruits or vegetables.
In 2020, 1,300,460 mental health consultations were provided in Colombia, 20 percent less than the 1,644,150 made in 2019, when the historical maximum was reached.
13% of parents report that their children have exceeded the recommended 60 minutes of physical activity, while an overwhelming majority of 75.2% say that their children do not reach the recommended minimum.
Young people between the ages of 12 and 21 have a drug use rate of 19.3%. The recent use or during the last year of some narcotic was reported by 3.6% of those surveyed, which is equivalent to about 839 thousand people.

Young people with bad eating habits.

ASPIRATION FOR A SOLUTION

We want to help young people in vulnerable conditions, who are more exposed to these difficult fields of life such as drugs, to give them new opportunities and live different experiences.
Our aspirations consist of educating young people in what they are passionate about, even more so in these difficult times where sometimes we do not know each other well or we do not know what to do with our lives.

ACCESSIBILITY TO DIFFERENT SPACES

You have to make young people learn by having fun and doing things they like or are passionate about.
Not all young people know about free programs that the different ministries put out, which means that these courses are lost and little by little they are diminishing.
The majority of young strata 1, 2 and 3 do not have the accessibility to have psychologists or coaches to help them find their passion or meaning in their lives.
