The Include program, from the Campus Party Institute, announces the opening of registrations, in Goiás, for the free robotics course. With limited places, young people from public schools, aged between 10 and 18, can apply. 75 vacancies will be offered per semester, and registration can be made through the link: https://institutocampusparty.org.br/inscricao-de-alunos/.
According to Sidiane Zanin, National Director of the Include Program, “our mission is to bring knowledge and information to adolescents and young people from underprivileged communities, giving them the opportunity to access technology and the maker culture. And the government of Goiás plays a fundamental role in building and encouraging social inclusion in the region, and is currently the state with the highest number of installed laboratories”, says Sidiane.
In the last three years, more than 3,000 students were enrolled in the 26 Include laboratories in the State, until the end of the first half of this year. The units are located in the municipalities of Goiânia, Anápolis, Aparecida de Goiânia, Trindade, Pirenópolis, Aruanã, Mozarlândia, São Miguel do Araguaia, Porangatu, Monte Alegre, Mambaí, Uruana, Jataí, Rio Verde, Itumbiara, Catalão, Caldas Novas, São Luís de Montes Belos and Cristalina.
“I signed up for Include last year, which opened many doors and opportunities for me in the technology field. In early 2023, I applied to work as a monitor and I am very happy to have been accepted and it has been a fascinating experience, from my first LED circuit, my participation as a speaker at the Campus Party to the presentation of a robot produced by me, with the help of my facilitator”, says Kauane Espíndola, a former student and monitor at Include.
Developed in partnership with the State Department for Development and Innovation (Sedi), Include aims to introduce young people from underprivileged communities to the digital environment, enabling knowledge of new technologies and opening opportunities to enter the digital world, studies and the job market. The laboratories have first-class furniture and equipment for teaching robotics, computers, 3D printers, virtual reality glasses, drones, among others.

In all, the program has more than 60 units implemented in 59 cities in the states of Minas Gerais, São Paulo, Paraná, Bahia, Rio Grande do Sul and Espírito Santo, in addition to Goiás.
