Our fundamental pillars:
POEP was born from a shared passion: making poetry and literary creation accessible to everyone. Our journey began in 2018, as a small group of enthusiasts who organized in-person workshops in Lisbon libraries. We quickly realized the hunger for a space dedicated to practical learning and sharing creative experiences, not only for students but also for teachers and literature lovers seeking to deepen their knowledge.
The decisive moment came in 2020, when we transformed our community into a digital space. We launched our first online platform, with structured courses on creative writing techniques and literary analysis. Since then, we have guided thousands of students in over 50 countries, developed partnerships with schools and cultural institutions, and created a unique library of resources in the Portuguese language. Each step reinforced our mission: to cultivate the poetic voice within each of us.
