Your personal work and expectations for the future

Camilo Soares (Paraguay 1996) has launched a national youth resource center to encourage and support youth self-organization. In 1994 Camilo established the Casa de la Juventud (Youth House), a resource center with three distinct dimensions: to meet, to learn skills, and to document and communicate youth organization experiences. Through the Casa de la Juventud, Camilo has begun to consolidate, lead and encourage the emerging sector of young people in Paraguay. He has created a place for young leaders run by young leaders -- the first of its kind in this developing nation.

The useful suggestion that CFF member would give to all potential & active social entrepreneurs

Que mantenhgan la dignidad y la coherencia en sus principios, de que no están creados el discurso concluído el cual el pragmatismo ha prevalecido y que las ideas, las ideologías y las convicciones son las cosas del pasado que no ayudan a construir en el presente; " forma " existido siempre y esta " manera " del individuo todo de gran alcance que con aprender " tecnologías sociales " puede cambiarlo toda no es verdad. Tiene que reflejar y al acto, es necesario decir la verdad cuesta qué costes y recordar una frase de ellas juven al poeta de Paraguayan que dijo que " nuestra boca no es cruda gritar con la rebelión, nuestra boca es sincera no tener cobardía ".

Governance and Participation

Your personal work and expectations for the future

In 1989, as Paraguay was just opening to democracy, Camilo Soares, then 14, was already playing a leading role in student organizations. He came to see the need for youth to obtain key organizational skills as well as to have a physical, moral, and political "space" for youth to come together to learn, plan, and act. In 1994, he established the country's first youth organization resource center, called Youth House.

Youth House projects a creed of youth autonomy and participation in civil society, and has three distinctive dimensions. The first dimension is for youth to meet. This is achieved thorough a program called "A Place for Youth" which has made Youth House the kind of place that constantly buzzes with energy and purpose. The second is to learn skills. Here, Youth House provides technical resources, training support and follow-up through a unique participatory learning methodology. The third dimension is to document and communicate youth organization experience, which the Youth House does through continuous knowledge sharing and the operation of a Youth Radio which broadcasts on youth initiatives.

While there are other resource organizations in Paraguay serving the wider florescence of citizen organizations, Camilo's center is the first to concentrate specifically on the needs of youth organizations, and run by young leaders for young leaders.

Your personal definition of Social Entrepreneur

A person with initiative, conviction and enthusiasm; but nonsuper they man or an illuminated individual, no, is like a translator of languages who manages to understand what people mean and can cause that many can communicate and communicate through him or she.

The useful suggestion that CFF member would give to all potential & active social entrepreneurs

That they mantenhgan the dignity and the coherence in their principles, that are not created the speech over which the pragmatismo has prevailed and that the ideas, ideologies and convictions are things of the past that do not help to construct in the present; the "fashions" always existed and this "fashion" of the individual all powerful one that with learning "social technologies" can change it everything is not truth. It has to reflect and to act, is necessary to say the truth costs what costs and to remember a phrase of they juven Paraguayan poet who said "our mouth is not crude to shout with revolt, our mouth is sincere not to have cowardice".
