Advisory Board

An innovative alliance

SETA was born from the history of organizations that already work with social transformation in the country and that have national and international reach, in addition to collaboration and direct connection with black, indigenous, education and youth movements. Our Advisory Council brings together names that inspire, guide and represent our commitment to articulating with the public and private sectors and civil society to implement Brazilian legislation that promotes anti-racist education.
