They apply the 3-Phase Methodology, awarded and certified as Social Technology by Fundação Banco do Brasil. Phase 1: development of socio-emotional skills – carried out within the communities / Phase 2: vocational courses and entrepreneurial training – carried out their training center in Realengo (RJ) / Phase 3: mentoring in business management and complementary training workshops. They train, on average, 600 women per year. Revenue comes from donations from individuals and large corporate supporters.

Refúgio 343 works with social development and humanitarian aid through the axes of interiorization (planned displacement) and education to promote the socio-economic reintegration of refugees and migrants. Its mission is to rescue and empower refugees around the world. Today, 100 million people are in a situation of forced displacement. The 3rd most displaced population group in the world are the Venezuelans. This migratory flow has a direct impact on Brazil, with 345,000 people regularized in the country in search of protection and life transformation. Through the internalization strategy, Refúgio 343 promotes the integration of families that seek refuge in Brazil throughout the national territory in a systematic way, activating people and companies in a clear system of reception. They rescue and empower refugees so that they can be authors of their own history. For this, they activate companies and people for reception and employability, carrying out the entire process: service and sorting, selection process and follow-up at the final destination. A great support for a successful interiorization are the courses offered at Escola Refúgio, it offers courses on entrepreneurship and female empowerment. Refúgio 343 works mainly in Roraima (where they welcome refugees), with plans to open a “Refugee House” in São Paulo. After training, they direct people to different parts of the country.

Instituto Pró-Saber SP is a non-profit civil society organization whose mission is to strengthen the integral education of Brazilian children through reading and playing experiences, transforming their families and communities. Filling the gap in the provision of early childhood education in Paraisópolis. At that time, children stayed at home until they were 7 years old, waiting for the minimum age to enter school, while children from middle and upper classes attended early childhood education in the private network and, thus, already entered elementary school with knowledge of reading and writing. They operate through an ecosystem in which they seek to bring the experience of a liberating and democratic education to the target audience. In this process, the family is summoned and involved in a loving and welcoming way, also being part of their children's education experience. They use reading beyond simple decoding, that is, for the interpretation of the world and playing as a teaching and sociability tool, and encourage teenagers to play a leading role in social transformation. The children attend the Institute in the after-school shift. Instituto Pró-Saber SP works in the Community of Paraisópolis, in São Paulo.

Instituto Pró-Saber SP's mission is aligned with the 2030 Agenda and helps promote SDGs 4 and 10.

Instituto Mundo Aflora

Instituto Mundo Aflora (IMA) is a non-profit organization created in 2016 that promotes the effective reintegration of girls who are or have already passed through the juvenile justice system. The organization's mission is for them to have opportunities inside and outside the centers to make new choices and receive full support to break the cycles of poverty, trauma, and crime.

Focused on adolescents and women between 12 and 21 years, the IMA has a transdisciplinary approach, with qualified listening, which allows an integrated view of its audience, putting their needs at the center of decision making. The organization has programs aimed not only at when these adolescents and women are within the centers of socio-educational measures, but also after that, for their reintegration into society. To this end, it works collaboratively and in a network with other organizations that provide free psychosocial support, education and work opportunities for the benefited girls.

The IMA aims to contribute to a systemic change also through the construction of public policies within, for example, the São Paulo Committee for the Prevention of Adolescent Homicide and in the strategic planning of the Secretariat of Social Development of the State of São Paulo.
