In 2025, the Rede Cidadã's Socio-Emotional Methodologycelebrates its 10th anniversary! That's a decade of caring for people in diverse situations of vulnerability in a holistic way, investing in their technical training and socioemotional development.
In 2015, we heard from partner companies that the turnover rate among the young people they hired was
significant, so we created a training method that restores participants' self-esteem (individual level), strengthens their sense of belonging, and enhances empathy (collective level), generating greater social awareness among them.
Also called the Reflective-Experiential Method, this is ateaching-learning process that combines reflection and
experience to broaden awareness of how to think, feel, and act. It encourages each person to look at their internal states, process their experiences, and, in a group, transform experiences into new behaviors. From this practice emerge six central learnings: the integration of life and work as a single value; self-knowledge, which strengthens emotional management; the recognition of values and talents, which guides choices and paths; protagonism, by assuming one's own capacity to transform situations; empathy, as an essential attitude in relationships; and care for life, awakening awareness of sustainability.
