Resultados do Projeto
A study tour with several meetings discussing Brazil's social protection policies and a final report
Part of this study tour was dedicated to learning about Brazilian policies in practice and in real time. The participants visited a Social Assistance Reference Centre (Centro de referência e assistência social—CRAS) in Cidade Estrutural, located in one of the administrative regions of the Federal District. They were able to see how beneficiaries engage with social protection programmes such as Bolsa Família, ask social assistants practical questions about the functioning and policies of the CRAS, and talk to the beneficiaries themselves. The participants also visited the local Community Restaurant, where they had lunch and learned more about Brazil’s food and nutrition security policy. A final report of the study tour was produced in French.
