Mundo Real project Primerios Passos (english)

The NGO, Mundo Real, describes their project Primeiros Passos in the favela (urban slum) of Rocinha, Rio de Janeiro.

In 2006 Mundo Real was invited to work alongside local residents of Rocinha to develop Primeiros Passos. The goal of Primeiros Passos is to respond to the unmet rehabilitative, therapeutic, supportive, and recreational needs of Rocinha's physically and mentally challenged residents and their families.

Mundo Real's objective is to establish a rehabilitation/recreation center for the physically and mentally challenged residents of Rocinha, one of the many marginalized communities in Rio de Janeiro. The center will be the first to be located in Rocinha, and will be managed by local residents.
