Education

In Brazil, Black, Indigenous, and Quilombola girls often face racism and sexism that impacts their education, resulting in dropout, poor attendance, and impaired learning. The SETA project is working to address this through the development of an anti-racist education system. A powerful alliance of seven organizations—ActionAid, Ação Educativa, Campanha Nacional pelo Direito à Educação, UNEAfro, Geledés, CONAQ, and Makira E’ta—SETA amplifies the voices and leadership of marginalized communities. Together, they aim to transform Brazil’s public education ecosystem and institutionalize racial equality in both policy and practice, ensuring a more inclusive and supportive environment for these girls.
