MY MADEIRA ISLAND
Madeira - Portugal
Associação MY MADEIRA ISLAND is a non-profit association with the aim of supporting the social, economic and cultural development of Madeira Island according to the Sustainable Development Goals more precisely:
• Good health and well-being
• Quality education
• Decent work and economic growth
• Reduced inequalities
• Sustainable cities and communities
• Responsible consumption and production
• Climate action
We contribute to the goals by organizing non-formal educational events and actions for young people and adults, at the local and international level, and online initiatives. These are local and international projects, camps, training courses, conferences, seminars, consultations, lectures and other educational activities, based on non-formal education principles.
We cooperate with the Direction of Youth in Madeira, Ecologic Park, local businesses, StartUp Madeira, Digital Nomad community, traditional media and other stakeholders.
We provide internship opportunities in the association for local youth.
We also run an online magazine – My Madeira Island https://mymadeiraisland.com/ on a volunteering basis. The magazine talks about the island of Madeira and its people - aiming to present the island through the stories of its people, for the locals and visitors to be inspired about the natural and cultural heritage of the archipelago and Macaronesia region, and therefore alight with our sustainable development goals. We create the photo and video content for the magazine ourselves.
