The SETA Project systematically promotes the voice, agency and leadership of black, indigenous and quilombola groups and people.
Our mission is to transform the ecosystem of public education in Brazil and institutionalize an approach to racial and gender equity in policy and practice. We will work to achieve the following six outcomes:
ActionAid Program & Policy Director and SETA project coordinator
We understand the need for schools to be a space to combat racism, to offer the same treatment to children and adolescents who come from different places, with different stories. The project brings together groups, intelligence and experiences in favor of racial equity education.
Coordinator of Geledés - Black Women's Institute
Anti-racist education must be understood as a duty and a commitment of all people committed to education. It is supported by constitutional principles, educational legislation, the set of National Curriculum Guidelines for Basic Education (DCNs), and the National Plan on Education (PNE).
Coordinator of the National Campaign for the Right to Education
The discourse on anti-racist education has grown in public opinion and in society, but we are still far from making this a reality. SETA will drive this revolution through a union of efforts by entities deeply committed to the anti-racist agenda.
Coordinator of Makira-E'ta - Network for the Articulation of Indigenous Teachers of the State of Amazonas
The school of today is not the school of yesterday. We need to innovate students' learning and recognize that indigenous peoples in Brazil are many and varied. That have their own organizations, different languages, different cosmologies and worldviews, ways of doing, thinking, and representing.
Coordinator of CONAQ - National Coordination for the Articulation of Black Rural Quilombola Communities
May we reduce this inequality that exists in the country and actually work towards racial equity that addresses both the issues of education, health, income generation and the black population's access to good living.
Deputy Executive Coordinator of Educational Action
There is still immense resistance in society and education systems to the implementation of these legal achievements. The change we seek is paradigmatic and requires constituting a global transformation process that addresses the different dimensions of schools and educational policies.

The SETA Project brings together those who historically build multidisciplinary strategies to put anti-racist education into practice at the center of public debate. It is a set of efforts from different entities for Racial Equity in Education and it is through this sum that we strengthen ourselves and move forward.
SETA Project was built by an unprecedented alliance of organizations with vast experience and anti-racist education actions. This work in coalition continues to dialogue with other projects and organizations across the country that operate in formal or non-formal education spaces with the aim of tackling inequalities in these environments.

Black, indigenous and quilombola girls and young women transform communities and school culture to be anti-racist and equitable. We understand, therefore, that the place of black, indigenous and quilombola girls is at school. Therefore, we will act intentionally to build a transformative educational system that promotes dignity at school.
Educators trained through initial and continuing training programs and supported with educational resources and guidance from education managers. Furthermore, they have the autonomy to incorporate anti-racist and non-sexist educational practices due to institutional recognition of the importance of these themes, with accessible and quality material support.
