Our team

Let’s make a pineapple. We are a team of people committed to fulfilling our mission and working for a fairer, more sustainable and supportive society through our values. Based on leisure education, we develop projects with children, young people, families, the elderly and the third sector, because we know that social transformation involves action in a wide variety of areas.
