The CAF program is aimed at high school students from public schools linked to the East and West Education Directorates (Campinas, Jaguariúna, Valinhos and Vinhedo), Limeira and Piracicaba.
The program lasts 1 month and takes place in January, during school holidays.
CAF enables high school students to participate in short research projects and participate in workshops (practical and group activities) in different areas of knowledge.
