It is a Short-Term International Volunteering program, traditionally known as the “Ponte” (Bridge) project, which describes an activity carried out by the Catholic youth movement Jovens sem Fronteiras (JSF) in partnership with Sol sem Fronteiras (Solsef) and the Congregation of Missionaries of the Holy Spirit (CSSp). Ponte takes place annually, mainly in August, and consists of a volunteer experience for young people with the objective of supporting local communities in different areas: education, health, training of community leaders, empowerment of women, promotion of Human and Pastoral Rights.
