I work primarily with companies, usually in the filed of human development. I believed that I saw a video in youtube about this initiative that you were part of. I did not remember the name of it but it was a great short movie made at someone's place with a speaker's corner.

If you have news ventures or venues near here please let me know...
Warm regards

Keep me posted as to your work with schools in Brazil. I will be launching a "How to Café Café" for school leaders here in New Jersey this fall and continue to host Cafés for students, educators, artists and communities. Let's keep in touch.
