The association

Human rights through art and culture.

Livroteca Brincante do Pina is a self-managed community association based in the Bode, in Recife, dedicated to defending human rights through art, reading and culture.

Mission, vision and values.

Mission

To defend and promote the human rights of children, teenagers and young people of the Bode community through art, reading and culture.

Vision

A community where access to culture and education is a lived right, not a privilege — with the favela recognised as a territory of creation, not of absence.

Values

  • Community self-management
  • Culture and education as a right
  • Anti-racism and Afro-Brazilian culture
  • Staying within the territory
  • Care for children and youth
  • Transparency and accountability

Who walks with us.

The Livroteca exists thanks to a network of businesses, institutions and collectives that support the project and walk alongside the Bode community.

We'll soon list our partners and supporters here.
