Ethnos provides life-changing education, legal support, and cultural integration for refugee families seeking safety and dignity in Brazil.
Donate to Protect Refugee FamiliesSince 2016, our mission has been to welcome and support refugees and migrants in overcoming language barriers and promoting inclusion. We have expanded our space to guarantee the rights and dignity of children, adolescents, and their families, transforming lives and building a more just future for all.
Our commitment is to transform lives through education, social inclusion, and the guarantee of rights, promoting a more dignified future for refugees and migrants.
We are strongly committed to transparency and operate with the utmost financial responsibility, following international NGO standards.
For thousands of families fleeing instability, arriving in Brazil is only the first step. Without the language or a complex legal system, refugee parents and children often find themselves living on the margins.
Children are the most vulnerable. Without documentation, they face social exclusion and the heavy emotional burden of displacement.
Portuguese classes overcoming the primary barrier to employment and social connection.
Creative tools for emotional healing, trauma recovery, and building a sense of belonging.
Assistance to help families secure residency and citizenship papers to work and thrive.
Empowering parents to provide for their children with independence and long-term stability.
For a child who has lost their home, an art class is a sanctuary. These programs restore the "emotional safety" that displacement takes away. At Ethnos, we see families move from uncertainty to the pride of contribution.
"We see children process their journeys and rediscover their potential through the universal language of music."
