And in case of livelihood the men are our target population as they usually responsible to manage earning needs, while, women, children, elders comes under category of the service population

  • The target population of my firm is public servants employed by the local government offices in the country. The service population is employees working for Federal government offices that guide and coordinate the local government offices. The semi-autonomous public agencies also provide similar services to the public and, thus, could benefit from our training. However, as they also have other options for capacity building, it makes more sense for us if we concentrate on the public servants in the local and federal government offices for better success.

    Our target population – adolescents and young people (aged 12-25), both male and female, living in Vila de Abrantes, an area of social vulnerability and drug-related violence. Most of these young people are Afro-descendant Brazilians of generally low socio-economic status but these are not limiting criteria for participation.

    Due to the socio-environmental characteristics of the community, these young people are exposed to armed violence and other public security issues, experience racism, sexual violence and other rights violations and live in an area marked by precarious or absent public services, a lack of formal employment opportunities and a lack of positive leisure opportunities.

    Service population – their parents, guardians, carers and other family members.

    We provide community-based services which involve other members of the community, although we do not consider them to necessarily constitute our service population.
