Who we are
Nexes Interculturals SCCL is a non-profit organization that promotes informal education for peace, intercultural learning, inclusion and global justice through the design and management of projects and educational services for the local and international community.
Vision
To be local and international referents in projects and services that promote culture of peace, global justice and personal growth, through international mobility, training, counselling and informal education.
Mission
To promote a social and sustainable transformation through education for peace and global justice through viewing diversity as an enrichment.
Action
To develop projects based on non-formal with specific focus on intercultural dynamics and youth mobility. These projects bring together young people from different social and cultural backgrounds, so they can enrich each other with their diversity.
Values
Nexes Interculturals is committed to the real and effective promotion of its values.
Empowerment
Critical thinking, autonomy, reflection and action in values of peace and global justice are promoted through educational opportunities that develop transversal skills and encourage active and conscious participation in the community.
Active Participantion
We encourage young people to play an active role in proposing new social paradigms, taking into account the needs of our communities. Participation, dialogue and cooperation are effective means of achieving an active and empowered community.
Global Justice
The promotion of education in values for the construction of a fairer world and the collective fight for equal opportunities, equity and against discrimination, which defends the fundamental rights.
Sustainability
Action for social transformation and global justice must be sustainable in all its dimensions: environmental, social, political, labour, cultural and economic.
Cooperation
Promotion of the collective responsibility for the common good, fostering solidarity and cultivating fair and horizontal relations between people and communities. Through cooperativism, but also with the social and solidarity economy, we aim to promote a fairer and more sustainable society.
Creativity
The ability to see and act beyond the established mechanisms. In our case, we use non-formal education, with a playful and critical thinking approach.
Equity
Anyone, regardless of their origin, gender, social class, education etc., must have the same opportunities and learning experiences to grow personally, professionally, socially, culturally and humanly, taking into account the different individual needs and circumstances.

Science teaches us, in fact, to subject our reason to the truth and to know and judge things as they are, that is, how they choose to be and not how we would like them to be.

Equality Plan of Nexes Interculturals SCCL
The Nexes Equality Plan is created from the desire to promote an organizational culture based on gender equality, diversity and respect for human rights inside and outside the cooperative. The diagnosis carried out during the first half of 2024 was fundamental to understanding the current situation of the entity and identify the needs and areas for improvement, as well as strengths, in relation to gender equality.
Transparency
Since 2000, we have been actively working in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain and around the world, trying to connect the local community to global reality.
We involve hundreds of people through local and counselling activities, youth mobility and cooperation projects, and local and international training activities.
