The Decade ahead: More Justice, More Equity
The pandemic made people nostalgic for the world as it was before. The loss of many dear ones, the longing for coexistence, the rapid slowdown of advancement, and the degree to which we went backwards in so many aspects can generate insecurities about how to move towards the future. But our trajectory up until now and these present challenges energize us to want much more and to work to make Brazil better, more cooperative, dynamic, and just for everyone. In the decade ahead we plan to work even harder to help build the Brazil we dream of and make it into a reality.
What do you consider paramount for us to accomplish in Brazil by 2031, a sign that we have reached another level? Here at Fundação Lemann, we are convinced that a fundamental part of that path lies in four dreams: eliminate school illiteracy, double the number of young people completing ninth grade with adequate learning, prepare thousands of leaders to occupy high-impact positions, and attract and develop high-quality leadership in the public sector. The dream is proportionate to how much we want Brazil to advance. And only collaborative work with a keen focus on equity and inclusion can turn it into reality.
In recent years, we have learned that big problems can only be solved collaboratively. Working together with more people and organizations ensures the exchange of knowledge and experiences, learning, optimization of resources, expansion of impact, and solid partnerships. Working synergistically and with the same purposes, we are stronger and likelier to recover from the pandemic’s impacts and the learning challenges. Want to join us?
