Social projects

Since 2007, Instituto Trata Brasil has worked so that citizens are informed and demand the universalization of basic sanitation services. The objective is to make society aware of having a fairer Brazil, with everyone having access to treated water, sewage collection and treatment.

To give more legitimacy to the actions, the Trata Brasil Institute develops projects in communities that are vulnerable to basic sanitation and where the lack of water and daily contact with open sewers are part of the reality of families. The social projects aim to mobilize and educate the population about the importance of access to basic sanitation services. Within the scope of work there are four lines of action:

Support for Rural Sanitation in Isolated Areas

This axis seeks partnerships with rural research bodies and companies that provide some type of solution for water supply and/or sewage collection and treatment.

Treats Brazil in the Community

The evolution of the quality of life of people living in needy communities is monitored, before and after receiving basic sanitation services.

Water and Citizenship for Life

The scope of the axis envisages changing habits, informing society about the impacts of the lack of sewage collection and treatment services on a daily basis.

Water at school

The aim is to create awareness projects about the importance of rational use of water and sewage infrastructure for schools and educational spaces, aiming at students, educators and parents.
