Civic Space GPS

 

 

Deliberate attempts to diminish the civic space are becoming increasingly common in Brazil. This is why the Igarapé Institute launched “The Civic Space GPS”: a quarterly analysis dedicated to monitor attacks, acts of resistance led by State institutions, as well as reactions from civil society. It considers the typology created by the Igarapé Institute to describe the different strategies and tactics used to close the civic space and described in the Strategic Paper 49: “The ‘Agora’ is Under Attack: assessing the closure of civic space in Brazil and Around the World”. Read below the first bulletin, encompassing from October 1st thru December 31st, 2020.
