The Program
Created in 2003, it is built on solutions that strengthen family agriculture in harmony with the environment. Executed in integration, these actions boost economic growth of the regions where applied, encouraging the vocation of benefited communities and taking opportunity to youth and their families.
This technology is put into practice through six action fronts:
Education for Sustainable Development
Environmental
Conservation
Economic
Development
Innovation and
Technology
Citizenship and
Governance
Cohesion and
Social Mobilization

As for our partnerships, they implement established actions, encourage organization and social mobilization surrounding the PDCIS and ensure the flow of communication of results yielded.
Another mark of the Program is the creation of a network between organized civil society and the government and the private sector, called participative governance. These actors pass to act in a more collaborative way around sustainable territorial development - therefore, changes generated by socioenvironmental action may be perpetuated and fight poverty and inequality in these regions on a deep level.
Where is thePDCIS?
Twenty years ago, the PDCIS was conceived in Lower Southern Bahia, the identity territory where it keeps being implemented. Based on the experience build in conjunction by us, by our partner NGOs and by benefited communities, it was in this region that arose the practices that substantiate all our programs and projects. In Lower Southern Bahia, PDCIS is executed in a partnership with four organizations: three High Schools integrated to technical courses: Casa Familiar Agroflorestal (CFAF), Casa Familiar Rural de Igrapiúna (CFR-I) and Casa Familiar Rural de Presidente Tancredo Neves (CFR-PTN); and one NGO focused on environmental and productive conservation, Organização de Conservação da Terra (OCT).
Since 2021, we passed to implement PDCIS practices in a community of family farmers of Macaé: Vale do Sana. Mobilized by Ocyan, the oil & gas company of Novonor Group, we have associated ourselves with local organizations and municipal administration to take qualifications that are strengthening the agricultural potential of the region, bringing more quality of life to the families. In Macaé, PDCIS is executed in a partnership with Ocyan (social investor), Macaé Administration and the Association of Family-Based Agricultural Producers of Sana (APAF-SANA).
