VALUES
Transparency
Concern for transparency underlies all of ATACA’s activities, playing a leading role in areas such as communication with donors, the association’s financial management and accountability to stakeholders. stakeholders – members, tutors, volunteers, partners, one-off donors and project beneficiaries.
Sustainability
ATACA’s intervention seeks to strengthen the autonomy of local entities and project beneficiaries, without creating relationships of dependency or dynamics that in the medium/long term could prove detrimental to the communities where it operates.
Training, empowering and developing the skills of children, young people and adults is, in our opinion, a strong contribution to achieving sustainable and lasting social change in these communities.

ATACA is an association that promotes the exercise of citizenship and civic participation through volunteering, and thus considers itself to be a volunteer-based organization, that is, an organization that seeks and finds in volunteers its main driving force.
