#Geledés – Black Woman Institute

[bumblebeeappletree]

#ad Brazil has a long and violent history of producing racial inequalities. As the last country to abolish slavery in the Americas, this relatively recent colonial history of slavery still impacts Brazil’s Black, Indigenous, and Quilombola communities. The SETA Project aims to advance racial equity by transforming Brazil’s education system to be anti-racist. SETA in Portuguese means “arrow,” which represents a symbol of justice that this program aims to take back, with the hopes of spearheading change and agility.

ActionAid Brazil works with Ação Educativa, the National Campaign for the Right to Education in Brazil, the National Coordination for the Articulation of Black Quilombola Rural Communities (CONAQ), Geledés – Black Woman Institute, and UNEfro Brasil to achieve this.

Listen as SETA Program Director Ana Paula Brandão shares how they are harnessing youth, education, and Black movements to trigger this national healing process and transform Brazil’s public schools by 2030.
