Calls for Sexual Abstinence Among Teens in Brazil Signal Rising Conservatism
Tags: Current Focus, Brazil, Women,
Evangelical Christianity in Brazil and the efforts to reduce teenage pregnancies. Ms. Alves, minister for women and family issues, is popular among the poorer communities in Brazil for her efforts in this direction. WSJ reports that her popularity is close to that of the corruption fighting Justice Minister Sergio Moro. She recently launched the Adolescence First campaign. Evangelical Christianity has grown quickly in the poorer urban areas and the northern region of Brazil and now makes up a third of the population. About 54% of Brazilians now think of the conservative Christian message as positive following years of corruption scandals and neglect of basic services such as sanitation and transport, says this report in the WSJ.
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
