You need sunglasses in Brazil even when the sun goes down. The primary colours of the city are sandwiched between lush green jungle and golden yellow sands, and just when you think it can’t get any brighter, you meet the kids on your community project. We work with a number of groups in Rio de Janeiro which all offer a wide range of support services which aim to open up educational and social opportunities. Rio being Rio, there is a great emphasis on the arts and the project provides workshops on percussion, circus skills, capoeira (a mix of martial arts and music) and even graffiti.
