Description/notes

Conectas exist to protect, enforce and expand human rights.

We are more than a non-governmental organization, we are part of a living and global movement that persists in the fight for equal rights. Connected to an extensive network of partners throughout Brazil and around the world, we are present and make ourselves heard in the various decision-making spaces that contribute to the advancement of human rights from a perspective of the Global South. We work to protect and expand the rights of everyone, especially the most vulnerable. We propose solutions, prevent setbacks and denounce violations to produce transformations.
