Tecnogueto

Tecnogueto aims to develop a platform for teaching technology, soft skills, and English, aimed at training web developers, for people from the outskirts and social ghettos. The goal is to have an 'Adaptive Learning' Technological Methodology, is a digital literacy,  adapts to the student's level of knowledge, and also provides accessibility resources as well as AI resources for employers, connecting the student to the job market. In Rio de Janeiro, 1.2 million people are unemployed, mostly on the outskirts, and besides that, the gap of employees in technical areas is growing and the lack of diversity in technical areas is a problem for technological innovation.
Tecnogueto offers technical knowledge and soft skills training, showing new perspectives of technological professions, also offering resources for recruitment with less than unconscious bias, consequently promoting innovation, with greater diversity of gender, race/ethnicity, LGBTQ+ and cultural in the workplace.

The potential impact of the project is to target a platform for the population on the outskirts, as it presents quality content for the most vulnerable population and that most suffers from social and educational inequality in Brazil, after high unemployment rates. Unemployment in Brazil affects almost 11 million young people, the majority of this group are low-income blacks, women and other minorities. Lack of formal education in the training of a professional and in the technological transformation of work
Diversity is also fundamental to innovation. A study on diversity conducted by McKinsey and Co., companies with ethnic diversity, and that number rises to 33%. Brazil is a diverse country, but the technological labor market is not inclusive, it loses talent and innovative potential.
Prejudices and unconscious prejudices with a outskirts make everything even more problematic.

The educational, free and inclusive platform Technogueto, perfom in technological training, social skills and English.  Made by people from the outskirts and for students from the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro, promoves digital literacy with adaptive learning, according to prior knowledge, regardless of stage, with gamification and Education: Education (entertainment) + Entertainment (entertainment), according to a cultural diversity spread in the outskirts. Company can pay a montly fee to acess a strategic diversity management functions. Artificial Inteligence resources, functional to reduce or unconscious bias, make it possible to carry out recruitment steps. Sometimes they focus only on the student's production, talent and knowledge, regardless of gender, address and name. 

A Harvard survey found that unfocused (the blind process) increased the chances of hiring women from 25% to 46%. You can also take skill tests, adjust cultures, job fairs, job announcements.

 It increases the employability of women, blacks, LGBTQ +, refugees, quilombolas in technological careers, consequently bringing innovation.

The potential impact of the project is to target the platform to the population on the outskirts and minorities. Most are black, women, refugee LGBTQI + and quilombolas.
22.2% in Rio de Janeiro, or practically one in five, are slum dwellers, informal market workers, single mothers, young people who never work, elderly people who want to return to work, unemployed from the outskirts. Worldwide, the number reaches 1 billion people living in the vicinity. The suburb, despite the enormous creative potential, is still far from the ideal of technical training and innovation events that take place in large centers. Soon, the training possibilities bring tools and new information and communication technologies, generating positive impacts in these communities, new perspectives and sources of income.
A study that reveals that educational institutions need to train 70,000 students to avoid what they call a "technical blackout". In addition, investment in new emerging technologies in Brazil is significant, as 38% of companies in Brazil invest in IoT projects in the short term. Demand is urgent, so the potential of the platform to prepare people for this growing market is significant.

Educational formation of professions in technology and digital literacy increases the opportunities for better jobs and connects to workplace. Opportunities to leave social and economic inequality, an informal market, there is a relationship of increasing informality in the labor market, which today affects 3 million people, with high levels of social vulnerability and without labor rights. Better working conditions, many technological careers are home office (in Brazil increased by 30%), with better earnings. Free and distance education is a unique study opportunity for students who live far from school, work all day, need to take care of their families.

Enfatizar que as periferias são maiores que o cenário de vulnerabilidade social, destacam os valores culturais de uma comunidade virtual que emergem da produção coletiva, seu repertório cultural que permite desafiar outras pessoas, participar com opiniões, "desenvolver inovação na perspectiva periférica";
As empresas precisam estar preparadas para receber um público diversificado, como trabalhadores e não apenas consumidores de sua tecnologia

Pensar no impacto direto, é pensar em vidas transformadas pela Motodologia Tecnogueto.
Até hoje realizamos 3 turmas presenciais, 2 turmas nas periferias do Rio de Janeiro e 1 em São Paulo. Impactando uma média de 50 alunos. Uma ideia da plataforma veio com uma alta demanda de inscrição dos alunos, vamos chegar ao número de 2.000 alunos na nossa plataforma daqui 1 ano.
A partir de 5 anos, vamos expandir em várias periferias do Brasil e da África, acessando cerca de 30.000 alunos.

Há também um impacto indireto desses funcionários em empresas.

-No próximo ano, queremos ampliar e nos tornar referência em educação tecnológica acessível e inclusiva nas grandes periferias do Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo e Belo Horizonte. Acessando cerca de 2.000 alunos através da plataforma.
- Sustentabilidade financeira do negócio.
- Ações de disseminação tecnológica, com cultura maker: através de eventos sobre '' Pensamento tecnológico nas periferias '', sobre como a periferia sempre produziu tecnologia e apresenta como a ciência está na construção de casas, física na produção musical, matemática em microempresas na Favela e na produção de Podcast e conteúdo, queremos nos tornar um movimento Tecnogueto, de tecnocultura e produção periférica de tecnologia.

- In the next 5 years: We want to have consolidated in the peripheries around Brazil, mainly in Bahia, Amazônia, Maranhão.
Access countries in South America and Africa.
-Have strategic partners.
- Be a reference for professionals in the technology sectors.
- To have Casa Tecnogueto, software house, pole of innovation and scientific production within the peripheries of Brazil. To be an open space for study, work, and digital transformation of small entrepreneurs from the periphery.

As barriers:
  - Unconscious biases and prejudices against peripheral people in the labor market.
- Lack of computers, cell phones and an adequate study environment for a portion of minorities that we want to support.
-The lack of financial resources makes it impossible for us to pay volunteers a salary, they do not work 100% for Tecnogueto.
With the quality and background we have of our volunteers, we would leverage if we could keep them as employees and not as volunteers

-Our business model is the solution to achieve financial sustainability and to be able to pay in the medium term a salary and benefits for our employees.
- Strategic diversity management, support for opportunities are measures that do not reduce the structural prejudice of society, but education is a way to generate awareness in people and create a more appropriate organizational culture that respects minorities
- Computers and cell phones: equipment donation campaigns are ideal for making this tool available to those who need it most.

Tecnogueto supports recruitment and selection with Artificial Intelligence to be fairer. Reduce unconscious biases, support racial and gender equity, understand the power of cultural diversity in the outskirts.
 Technology companies and the Human Resources committee are our focus. Companies that estimate to focus on innovation and believe that their employees are the key parts.
Recognizing human capital as the protagonist of companies' success, relying on Artificial Intelligence in Human Resources can be a way to achieve greater objectivity in processes and improve the focus on results. 

To support committees and reduce unconscious bias in the workplaces, our platform offer to the company through a monthly fee, favoring the employability of our students, behavioral tests, cultural fit, blind recruitment, repositories and databases of professionals in technology and diverse talents. 

More diverse companies have many benefits, including:
-Innovation strategy: Double registration of patents than companies without diversity policies and practices, according to a study published in 2018 by Financial Management magazine.
-Growth of the company's intellectual capital:
In companies where diversity actions are developed, employees are 17% more willing, while the occurrence of conflicts is 50% less (Harvard Business Review, 2016)
- Greater sense of belonging:
When a company 'opens the door' to diversity, it values creativity and encourages the exchange of knowledge and experiences.

Tecnogueto is the bridge to reduce the gap of tech collaborators, education as a social transformer, democratization of teaching, prioritizing innovation and inclusion in all processes.

Our business model consists of a B2B (business to business) payment model for companies.
The monthly pricing would correspond to the features they would like to provide. Among the options that will benefit companies, especially the Human Resources committee will have support in recruitment and selection campaigns in search of diverse talents, blind recruitment processes, support and training to reduce corporate unconscious bias, cultural fit test among company and student and etc. In this way, they could strengthen the employing Brand, the Management and Diversity process, market competitiveness and technological innovation. We also count on the donation and funds that support the employability of peripheral populations, and support for racial and gender equity, LGBT + rights at work, but thinking about autonomy and sustainability, the monthly fee for the Tecnogueto platform in a model that we would be able to grow, develop and hire our employees. volunteer members and experts in various areas to increasingly generate updated technology and soft skills content and expand technology to access more and more peripheries.

We are at Solve, primarily because it is the right space to connect with anyone who is thinking about innovations with an impact on social transformation. Connect with the MIT community of technologists, security experts, entrepreneurs and work experts. Tecnogueto presents what Solve is looking for: technology-based solutions that encourage good jobs and opportunities. Offering support for workers to adapt to the digital transformations of work and the economic crisis. Bringing diversity management strategies so that minorities are included.
SOLVE can support Tecnogueto by establishing connections with investors and grantors to make progress in its fundraising strategy.

-Guide and advise product development and strategic planning 

-MIT can provide invaluable technical assistance in artificial intelligence

- strategic with  business communities

-connect with partnerships to take the technogueto methodology to other countries

A portion of the periphery population has cell phones but does not have internet broadband. We would like to partner with telecommunications companies to facilitate this access. As well as technology companies offering donations, funds or support to people who are unable to buy smartphones or notebooks. We believe that this work tool can change the life and surroundings of the community.Connection with corporate networks to address the issue of diversity and inclusion and strategies

A study on diversity carried out by the consulting firm McKinsey and Co. in 12 countries shows that companies with teams of executives with a greater diversity of profiles are more profitable. At least 1,000 global companies have been analyzed. Companies with greater gender diversity in the sample are 21% more likely to present results above the market average than companies with less diversity in the group. Women are underrepresented at all professional career levels and black women are the group in biggest disadvantage.
In the Brazilian peripheries, the majority who are unemployed, or work on a day of taking care of their children and the house and are unable to earn income, are black women. The education and employability platform, provides support for this woman, flexibility both to study and to work remotely

The platform has great global potential in supporting minorities in peripheral regions to participate in the digital transformation of work. Leaving informal work, building innovations with technlogical implementation with their own narrative. The fund would expand this potential, support us in the speed of implementation, which is urgent given the time during the quarantine and post pandemic that deals with remote work. Insertion of this portion of the population that will be unemployed in new work fronts is urgent. Creating hubs of technological production and software house on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and not so distant world is the impact we want to cause, digitizing small and medium businesses. Breaking barriers and building bridges to the world with more employability, this is Tecnogueto.

The Tecnogueto platform for technological training and sofft skills respects the intellectual capital and cultural diversity of all minorities.
He understands that digital literacy is an urgent need, our proposal besides supporting technological training is to support essential skills for young adults to have cyber security on networks. How to identify fake news, how to have an analytical understanding, and understand the power that information and education can provide. It still connects this student with the job market, reducing the gap in technology collaborators from underdeveloped countries and promoting diversity and innovation in companies
