Where

Brazil, Goiás (Go)

The project in brief

Imagine a landfill in a city in central Brazil. Reclaim the land, set up a kitchen and a canteen, build a school, a playroom and a theater. Taking care of the children who grow up left to themselves. Making them revive the creativity of playing. Educating them in a school where they can learn with confidence. Making their African and indigenous origins a reason of pride and not discrimination. Teaching them to act, to dance, to play, to develop their imaginations hardened by violence and misery. All this is «Vila Esperança».
