The organising team of Connectivity came together from different initiatives and people who work in different organisations. They worked together in two main centres – São Paulo and Germany/Switzerland, but there are others involved in other countries too.

Here you can see many of the faces and get to know who they are:

The Organising Team

We came together in the Idem-Network

Another co-host is the Youth Section

Then there is also Idem-Brazil, who carried the main responsibility for the local organisation in São Paulo.

GYAN, the Global Youth Action Network, have put at our disposal their office, administrative infrastructure and large international database.

And  the Associação Comunitária Monte Azul, who run the social organisation Monte Azul, is our first and continuing contact in Brazil.

Another organisation that is providing a lot of help and support is Neuronio, www.neuronioconsultoria.com.br, who were already running a conference at Senac university at the same time as Connectivity, and decided to join us in both participating in and preparing the conference. As their Hompage is in Portuguese only, you can find a description of what they do here...
