My lecture referred to a project to generate incomes in deprived areas from Amazonas in Brazil, I co-created and implemented. Its main focus is on family, children and leadership empowerment for sustainability to enhance local autonomy.
The above-mentioned is a reference-project due to the maximization of its impacts and the written output: a position paper circulated to the United Nations, European Union, Governments in America and Europe, among other recipients, proposing concrete solutions to enhance social equality. In other words, influencing public policy for social equality.
I would like to thank the organization of the event for their invitation and for the opportunity to share views and to propose actions aimed to mitigate child poverty and for the breaking the cycle of disadvantage.
