Brazil
We support projects in the largest country in South America
With a surface area of almost half of South America’s territory, Brazil is the largest in the region. Its economy is also the most thriving in the area. Brazilian society is very diverse, made up of descendants of Europeans, natives, Americans, Africans and Asians. This mix makes it one of the most culturally rich states, a richness that is fundamentally expressed in its music.
