Brama Project

Brama Project

Presentation

Bramar {portuguese verb} = roar, howl

The Brama Project aims to be a vehicle for information, especially through the channels which are most difficult to disseminate.

Although it arises within an association for Environmental Conservation, the scope of the Brama Project is broader, disseminating topics related to various areas of knowledge.

We believe that sharing knowledge is more difficult when it is closer to the people and, as such, we develop efforts so that apparently complex issues become accessible to anyone, in order to promote a more enlightened social conscience, capable of looking at the world through different perspectives.

Our commitment is to educate, clarify and stimulate an informed critical spirit, based on the principle that there are no barriers when there is a will to learn and teach.

To foster a critical spirit and provide citizens with tools that enable them to make informed decisions – this is Brama’s mission.
