Impacted by the Assessment educational solution
I am 15 years old and I study at EMEF Santa Cruz, born and raised in a public school. And today I want to thank the Cactus Project, because thanks to it, this year, I was qualified for the Federal Institute of Espírito Santo in Chemistry. And today I came to bring, with great joy and great satisfaction, how much the Cactus Project can impact our lives and our society. The Cactus project has its great mission to bring mathematics and teaching to public schools. (...) These are classes that, most of the time, are subjects that are very important for entrance exams and other exams, but which are not currently brought to schools. (...) They have incredible, wonderful teachers who are always there to answer your questions. We also have Helania who is always there encouraging us and who says something that I carry in my life: (...) teaching changes our lives and it really changes.”

Student of the Olympic Classes of the Cactus Association
The Arco Instituto is very important in the history of the Cactus Association. We started the partnership when we were present in just a few municipalities in the interior of Ceará, and we were able to count on the generosity and expertise of the people who are part of the Institute to expand and improve our operations. In addition to the financial contribution, we have the privilege of using the content, technologies for applying evaluations, and pedagogical support from the country's leading educational solutions company. Together, we're bringing more opportunities to public school students in Brazil.

We create challenges that connect theoretical knowledge to the lives of young people participating in knowledge Olympiads, contributing to the development of socio-emotional competencies.
Arco socio-emotional platform:
Customized challenges with the theme of the competition, complementing the technical content;
Materials and training moments so that teachers prepare for the application;
Practical problem solving and reflections about the lives and careers of young people.
O Movtech is a coalition of organizations that works from technology education to employability in the area, seeking a strong and just sector, with inclusion and equity. Um
One of its main projects is the Tech Marathon, which received more than 200,000 student registrations in 2024 alone
from all over the country.
We developed the product applied in phase 1 of Marathon Tech, promoting the development of socio-emotional skills in students by solving challenges and reflecting on careers.
Impacted by the Socio-Emotional Educational Solution
I'm 15 years old, a first year of high school and I was really happy to be among the gold medalists in this marathon. It exceeded my expectations very well, both because of the opportunity that the Marathon has to encourage young people to study, to think about this area of technology and all the others. The Marathon works in a different way when we think of a competition like this, at the national level, it is much more didactic and playful. And going through all the stages, setting aside some time, we discover how to solve problems in various areas of life that can be applied. (...) It's an opportunity and sometimes students also need encouragement to discover themselves, to enter the technology area, because they don't know where to start and I think that the Marathon provides this very well.
Jaiane Saiara
Tech Marathon Gold Medalist
We are very happy to have several institutions, such as Arco Educação, supporting the construction of the Tech Marathon and, as a coalition, we engage and invite civil society to support this very important initiative so that public school students and teachers can dream and achieve through technology. Movtech has education at its core, being the common thread for talent to find opportunity, without leaving anyone behind.
