Brazil serves as a laboratory for participatory and trust-based philanthropy, offering lessons for the world.
This bilingual series (Portuguese & English) explores unique approaches emerging from Brazil’s social movements, foundations, and funders. From community-driven grantmaking to alternative funding models, we examine how Brazilian philanthropy is redefining power dynamics in the sector.
Proximate is an independent media platform covering movements for participatory problem-solving. We look at the news through the lens of money: how it’s given away, how it’s invested, and how it’s distributed by government.
We are a fiscally sponsored project of Movement Strategy Center.
