The Campaign <\/span>Sociedade Livre<\/span><\/i><\/a> (Free Society) was launched on Tuesday, 23 April with the objective of mobilising the population to put pressure on public powers to reverse <\/span>Article 5, clause II of <\/b>Provisional Measure (MP) 870\/2019<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u2013 provisional measure to control NGOs.<\/span><\/p>\n

This measure makes the Secretary of Government responsible for \u201csupervising, coordinating, monitoring and accompanying the activities and actions of international bodies and non-governmental organisations within national territory\u201d and facilitates government interference in more than 800 thousand Brazilian NGOS.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since January, social organisations have been taking a stand against this provisional measure. An\u00a0<\/span>open letter<\/span><\/a>, addressed to General Santos Cruz, Chief Minister of the Secretary of Government of the Presidency of the Republic, was signed by more than 60 organisations.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe idea is to put pressure on members of congress who are on the joint commission set up to assess the provisional measure.\u201d Explained Ricardo Borges Martins, executive coordinator of <\/span>Pacto pela Democracia (<\/span><\/i>Pact for Democracy). To do this anyone can send emails to Senators and backbenchers via the\u00a0<\/span>campaign site.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

In addition to launching its action <\/span>Sociedade Livre<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>Pacto pela Democracia<\/span><\/i> will also represent the organisations in a public hearing on this matter, to be held in Brasilia, on Wednesday, 24 April at 2pm, in Anexo II of the Federal Senate. Voting on the measure is scheduled for 8 May.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pacto pela Democracia<\/span><\/i> is a coalition of over 100 social organisations, including Conectas, who define themselves as being a platform for joint action, acting as a compass in a series of initiatives like this one and standing up for the construction of democracy in the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>
