Quality education for all children
The ultimate way to invest for remarkable returns in Brazil
WHAT WE DO
Ensina Brasil recruits, selects and trains talented young graduates from the best universities in the country to become full-time teachers in high-need public schools for at least two years. During their time in the classroom, they develop as future leaders in order to multiply their impact inside and beyond the classroom in order to transform educational opportunities for all children in Brazil.
Ensina Brasil is a non-profit organization which aims to mobilize diverse talent and develop young leaders to transform the educational system, beginning in the classroom.
