Project" The new face of rurual poverty in Brazil:transformations, profile and public policy challenges"

The objective of the project was to formulate proposed policies for combating rural poverty in Brazil, taking into consideration the structural changes that have taken place in the economy and society of Brazil, and their impact on the most vulnerable sectors of the rural population. As a basis for formulating the proposals, studies were conducted in nine thematic areas, in two stages. The first was concluded in December 2010 with the Fifth International Forum: territorial development strategies aimed at combating poverty, and the second in June 2011.
