Strengthening public debate: Infinis' key highlights in the press
Strengthening civil society organizations is protecting the future
Strengthening organizations and engaging in dialogue with legislators is part of building a country that takes social welfare and childhood seriously. By Márcia Kalvon.
Thematic areas
Our priority strategic pillars
Aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the strategic pillars of the José Luiz Setúbal Foundation, Infinis works on three child and adolescent health themes and on strengthening civil society.
Food Security
We seek to drive change in addressing childhood malnutrition by strengthening initiatives that expand access to adequate, healthy, and sustainable nutrition from the earliest years of life.
Mental Health
We work to strengthen public policies and initiatives that promote the emotional and psychosocial well-being of children and adolescents, expanding access to care across diverse regions of Brazil.
Violence Prevention
Violence against children and adolescents is a structural issue in Brazil. We focus on prevention, the promotion of safe environments, and the strengthening of data-driven public policies.
Strengthening Civil Society
We invest in strengthening Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) as a strategy for social transformation, fostering a culture of giving, supporting the philanthropic landscape, and contributing to the sector's development.
