We work to
transform the world
To put the poverty of the favelas in the museum, we are looking for companies and organizations that will partner with technology and innovation, running systemic transformation programs. Our pilot will be implemented in two favelas in São Paulo: Barra de São Miguel and Cidade de Deus
The challenges facing Brazil's Favelas are complex and require multi-faceted solutions.
When Favelas are described, attribute adjectives and descriptions that compare them to what is the standard for those who have access to essential urban rights and live in dignity. Here, we know the favela.
Low investment
With the historical lack of investment from the state and the formal market
Severe stigmatization
Strong socio-spatial stigmatization establishes avoidance, socio-spatial distancing and control.
Labor relations
High levels of underemployment and informality in labor relations
Social appropriation
The land is predominantly used for housing purposes
Self-built housing
Buildings are not guided by the parameters defined by the state, and most of the time low-quality materials are used.
High density
In a favela in Brazil, there are 48,300 inhabitants per km². A 20m² house can accommodate more than 5 people.
Evident inequality
Educational, economic and environmental indicators below the average for the city as a whole
Climatic Emergency
Occupation of urban sites marked by a high degree of environmental vulnerability
How are we going to transform the world?
In the favelas, the multi-dimensionality of poverty reveals socio-economic inequalities. We believe that the opposite of poverty is dignity. Join us in bringing dignity to favela families and, in this way, transform the world for good.
