The Instituto Anjos do Sertão (IAS), in a formal description, is a non-profit organization located in the city of Canto do Buriti, in the southern part of the state of Piauí, Brazil.
We were born from the desire to discover the natural, social, and cultural riches of the Caatinga, a wise and fascinating environment. We seek to show the world how a real impact investment model can preserve this unique universe.
Beyond formalities, we are human beings in search of practices that integrate new approaches to relating and living on the planet, in order to cultivate, distribute, and consume food that honors the earth, people, and life.
It is through regenerative territorial development that we can give voice to local communities, foster collective actions, and facilitate the exchange of experiences. In this way, we create a space that enables the emergence of solutions derived from collective thinking, always co-constructed with the collaboration of everyone in the territory.

To whom it may concern
I am the holder of a South African and British passports and am currently in Menet, France, participating in a Euroculture project. I have been working as an intern in the organization for the July project, and have been learning the basics of permaculture. I have also been learning some basic recipes for communal meals at this time. I have also been fortunate enough to participate in the stone sculpture, drama and music workshops.
I am interested in sustainable cultivation, cultivation of wine and beer and the installation and upkeep of aquaponic and hydroponic systems. I have some experience in music, visual art, and drama, and I love philosophical conversation. I am 21 years old and have completed 2 years of study in humanities at Rhodes University in South Africa.
I will be looking for volunteer/wwoofing work from September. Please let me know if you are aware of any opportunities in this regard.
Kind regards
Morgan
