Nawaiam Government

Discovering young people’s potential is building the future of the territory.

We help governments widen opportunities for their young people and make better decisions on education, employability and local development.

The problem

When guidance comes too late, young people and the territory pay the price.

  • Choosing without self-knowledge

    Many young people finish high school without exploring their strengths or the options close to them.

  • Interrupted paths

    Without timely guidance, career changes and dropout increase in the first years of study.

  • Little territorial information

    Governments rarely have structured data on their young people’s interests and abilities.

  • Investment that is hard to measure

    Without baseline information, it is hard to know which programs bring young people closer to better opportunities.

How much talent are we leaving undiscovered?

Behind every blind choice is a life project that could have gone another way. A guidance program doesn’t solve everything, but it supports that moment with more information and better tools.

An entire generation

What if we could better understand the strengths of an entire generation?

When thousands of young people discover how they behave, communicate and decide, each of them gains clarity to choose, and the territory gains a new view of its people.

Results provide guidance. They describe behavioral tendencies; they do not define anyone’s full potential.

Talent is everywhere. Opportunities are not.

Career guidance usually reaches those who already have more resources. A public program can bring it to young people who would otherwise have less access.

  • Reaches the whole school

    Played on a phone or computer, with no special infrastructure.

  • Supports without labeling

    The report opens conversations with teachers, families and counselors.

  • Widens access

    The same resource for urban, rural, public and technical schools.

What changes for young people

More self-knowledge and better tools to choose.

Each young person gets a personal report. Not a diagnosis: a starting point to think about their path.

  • They know themselves better

    They understand how they behave, communicate and make decisions.

  • They explore with judgment

    They see careers and trades aligned with their strengths, including some they had not considered.

  • They choose with more confidence

    They decide what to study or where to work with more information.

  • They have someone to talk to

    Teachers and counselors can support them using the same report.

What changes for governments

Information to guide programs and allocate resources better.

  • Guide programs

    Design education, employment and youth initiatives based on what young people need.

  • Allocate resources

    Spot where more support is needed and prioritize with information.

  • Widen access

    Bring guidance to schools and areas that don’t have it today.

  • Be accountable

    Track participation and export indicators for official reports.

Territorial intelligence

From individual data to territorial intelligence.

When the results of thousands of young people are combined, trends emerge: which strengths predominate, which careers attract interest, where information is missing. That aggregated view helps design better initiatives at local, regional and national level.

What the government sees on its dashboard

  • Participation by school, municipality, gender and age
  • Predominant behavioral profiles by territory
  • Careers and competencies of interest by cohort
  • Comparisons across periods

Data protection

  • Participation with informed consent; for minors, with authorization from parents or guardians and the institution.
  • The government sees aggregated information: the dashboard does not show each young person’s individual profile.
  • Data is used to guide and design programs, never to select, exclude or grade a young person.
  • Processing in line with each country’s personal data protection law.

How it works

Young people don’t take a test: they play.

About 15 minutes of play on a phone or computer. While they play, Nawaiam observes how they decide and turns it into a behavioral profile based on the DISC model.

  • Genuine responses

    They play without knowing what is assessed, which reduces the urge to give the answer that “looks good”.

  • Validated

    Methodology validated by the University of Zaragoza and applied across countries and cultures.

  • Scalable

    From one school to a whole province, with no special infrastructure.

Institutional legacy

Some government decisions have results that outlast an administration.

Lasting capabilities

Schools and teams that learn to support young people with information.

Sustained guidance

A program that can be repeated cohort after cohort and improve with each edition.

More opportunities

Young people who choose with more information and a territory that knows its people better.

Baseline information

Aggregated data that remains to plan the next policies.

“Better understanding young people’s strengths changes the opportunities a territory can create.”
