II Encontro Nacional de Comunicação Colaborativa (National Meeting of Collaborative Communication)

Between the 29th and 31st of July, the II National Meeting of Collaborative Communication took place at Abong’s headquarters in São Paulo. The event was promoted by Abong and Rede Cardume: Comunicação em Defesa de Direitos (Communication in Defense of Rights) – a network of organizations, collectives and civil society movements with the objective of articulating and implementing communication actions that enhance the promotion and defense of common rights and assets. During the 3 days of the meeting, communicators representing the organizations that make up Abong’s national network debated on the current panorama of the field of communication for resistance and its challenges – considering the current political context. The group also developed a collaborative communication plan for Abong. Viração was also present.

Comunicathon “Disseminando as realidades das juventudes brasileiras” (“Disseminating the realities of Brazilian youth” comunicathon)

Viração was invited by Em Movimento, an alliance of organizations that work for youth, to participate, on the weekend of november 2 and 3, 2019, in the Comunicathon “Disseminating the realities of Brazilian youth”, a meeting that brought together collectives and experts in communication, youth, data and activism to develop communication solutions based on data from Altas das Juventudes1 , one of the largest researches on Brazilian youth.

The meeting sought to foster a network among those present to provide access to the necessary support so that the solutions developed could be released to the world.

1 is a research created by Em Movimento in partnership with the Pacto das Juventudes pelos ODS (Youth Pact by the SDGs), two large networks of organizations that work to mobilize stakeholders in order to empower youths. The research was created from the perception that there is little systematized, deepened and consolidated data gathered in one place on the situation of Brazilian youth. Thus, Atlas’ proposal is to compile, translate and organize all this information in a more complete survey on the situation of young people in Brazil, on a single platform with open and completely free data. For this event, we accessed data from the first quantitative stage of the research, carried out in partnership with Fundação Getúlio Vargas’ (Getúlio Vargas Foundation) Social Policy Department.
