Integral Development Assessment

Our students and instructors helped in the construction of a document aimed to formulate the Integral Development Index, created in 2022 by Fundação Itaú Social. In the first stage, they answered a questionnaire and evaluated it, with constructive remarks about its content, type of writing, among other aspects. This pre-test was carried out in three partner organizations – our project is the only participant in the state. In this sense, the Foundation prepared the final document, which is being provided to other NGOs, called “Integral Development Assessment”. There are several questions through which respondents report how they see themselves within their groups, within the social project they attend, among their peers and friends, in their families, about the culture in which they are inserted, the culture of their communities and neighborhoods, among other pertinent matters. The Integral Development Index serves as a reference to measure the result of organizations that cooperate in the growth of children and adolescents.

In August, Bruno Andreoni, an advisor hired by WBD with funds from Fundação Itaú Social, visited our headquarters for a special work with employees from different areas. Bruno specializes in Communication, the focus of this activity in 2022. With group dynamics and conversation, over three intense days of exchanging experiences, the consultancy aimed to improve our ability to “tell stories”. For this, the Communication team received special attention, encouraged to reflect on dreams, wishes, strategies and desires for the future. The activities did not end that month, and continued remotely focusing on the processes carried out by the area.

NOVEMBER Deepening in organizational issues

In November we reviewed our Institutional Development Plan, an instrument that serves as the basis for monitoring participation in Missão em Foco, which is analyzed annually. For two days, Nayara Coutinho, a Fio Facilitação consultant who monitors the WBD within the Program, carried out interaction and discussion dynamics on the NGO’s organizational issues. In addition, at the end, she helped define a list of priorities of aspects and matters that could be improved.
