OPINION
The (re) discovery, independence and the proclamation of freedom of a people. River of Peace State of Grace: the awakening of a new time
long the city of Rio de Janeiro has been called city game. It was practically impossible to move freely in their various areas without consulting the map to know whether an area was the danger area. "Favela" word flagship, marginal, which marginalizes and stands outside the process of developing a evoluçãoe city. Forgotten and neglected for decades by successive administrations, became a fiefdom - and why not "hereditary" - the grantee unfriendly. Traffickers who took pain and terror on residents oppressed, enslaved, the right to opine and dreaming. The design of
Police Units Peacekeeping is not restricted to the pacification in various areas of our city. It's larger project, which overlaps with our own history: the (re) discovery of fossilized territories, which stopped at the time that has not stopped. The independence of a people oppressed by the law of the jungle, where a few worthy intimidated many. The proclamation of the freedom of a people who remained inert even aware that fear would be abolished.
One of the major challenges that advertising is just gaining the trust of the people living in slums, poor communities. A job that is not responsibility only of government but also of society. One example of action for this, it establishes the creation of professional workshops and cultural (art, readings, music, education), allowing those who were for so long constrained, they can live in a society more just, equal and fraternal, with information, profession, diversãoe dedicaçãoa all.
Another challenge is to gain membership of civil society as a whole, calling this to integrate this process they propose that the UPP. You wear the shirt, saying that "we are together", and society more participatory and less pragmatic. It is the society not just watch the action, always ready to criticize and to blame everything on the government. Understand that society is composed springboard that will democratize the whole process. An example of action for this is the actual selection process of the UPP Social, inviting civil society to be no longer a spectator, but processing agent. A project that is ambitious, challenging - and rewarding - for those who propose this.
