“Our Network comprises a cadre of prepared leaders who recognize the significant role they play and possess the ability to contribute to a fairer future for everyone.”

Cosme Bispo - Leadership Development Manager, Lemann Foundation

“What impressed me about the Network in 2023 was the opportunity to lead a 'Connect for Impact' table, where I presented a public issue in São Vicente. With contributions from various sectors, we developed a project that is now making headway in the city.”

Jefferson Cezarolli - Councillor of the São Vicente City Council (SP)

“The Anti-Racist Leadership Program offered a unique chance to unite dozens of professionals in leadership and decision-making roles, including CEOs of major organizations, for immersive experiences in Salvador, São Luís, and Manaus. The program was profoundly transformative, challenging participants to rebuild their leadership grounded in the values of the Black, Indigenous, and Quilombola communities.”

Lara Barreto and Ellen da Silva - Directors at Mahin Consultoria Antirracista
