We believe that social transformation happens from the inside out
As much as policies, projects and programs are built aiming to impact harsh realities, they can only go through effective transformation if the stakeholders involved are politicized enough to comprehend what happens in their territories (physical and symbolical), and from there adopt new postures and practices regarding problems.
Therefore, social transformation starts, mainly, by effective social participation, meaning, one that is aware and politicized
The presence of bodies on meetings is not, in the last instance, an effective participation.
Our central role as a consultancy is to facilitate the rupture process from these rigid structures, strengthening social groups in vulnerability situations

Methodology
For a social transformation to occur, it is necessary that programs, projects and actions in spatial contexts follow the cycle of change in each work process. Therefore, Tewá 225 has developed a methodology focused on the path of awareness for initiatives that aim at a positive impact and the promotion of development, with social participation.
This cycle goes through 4 stages focused on generating shared value for society, proposing organizations and local communities, working with a special focus on the autonomy of the territories:
TALK ABOUT IT
With those involved, building narratives and evaluating value generation strategies and initiatives based on qualitative data arising from listening.
BUILD
Aiming at transformation, ecosystem action, refinement of strategy, programs, practices and initiatives.
Experiences structuring knowledge management with visits to replicability as social technology and continuous improvement.
CONSOLIDATE
About the challenges as well as secondary data, information and who the actors are, what their pains and anxieties are.
RAISE AWARENESS
