The collection of publications and TV series of the same name were produced by Salto para o Futuro (Jump for the Future), working in conjunction with the writer and hip-hop researcher, Ecio Salles. The texts in this collection exhibit a shared desire to expand rights and deepen democracy. Underpinning the work is a belief that micro-policies, based around the formation of subjectivities, will have macro-policy effects and facilitate the re-invention of the city - Ecio Salles compares implementers of social initiatives to artists who must not get carried away with an ideal or a myth, but must remain committed to the real world and the tools at their disposal, always mobilizing the indigenous collective.

He asserts that communities have the potential to reinvent collective subjectivity, means of production, exchange and consumption, and the media itself. Nowadays organizations are using music, dance, theatre, circus and capoeira as languages which can re-direct paths, people and communities, and their work is being disseminated and expanded through the support of development agencies, companies, governments and the media. social initiatives build bridges that promote dialogue, contact and movement.   arrow-back      arrow-forward
