Description
**PROJECT CONTEXT AND DESCRIPTION:**
AVSI Brasil is a non-profit civil society organization founded in 2007, focused on improving the living conditions of vulnerable populations. It works in partnership with international cooperation actors, public sector entities, and the private sector. Affiliated with the Italian NGO AVSI Foundation—which has operated in Brazil since the 1980s—AVSI Brasil’s mission is to promote people’s protagonism in their own development, as well as that of their families and communities. It implements social projects based on an integral and solidarity-based development methodology, oriented toward autonomy and human dignity.

The proposed intervention seeks to strengthen the company’s institutional relationship with neighboring communities, promoting transparency, active listening, prevention of social risks, and alignment of socio-environmental initiatives with local dynamics and expectations.
