Mission

Why this map exists

Information about Paraíba is scattered across official gazettes, government portals and newspapers. Here it is gathered in plain language, so people know what is happening and come together to change it.

  1. 01

    Inform

    Show what is happening to the water, health care, schools, jobs and housing of the people who live here.

  2. 02

    Mobilize

    Give everyone clear facts to talk over with neighbours, co-workers and family, and act together.

  3. 03

    Hold to account

    Say who decides, what they promised and what they did, so that governments and city halls answer to the people.

The sections

Organized by place

The map is organized by the places where people live: the state and each city. Each section brings together that place's problems and what the government did, or failed to do.

Method

Every fact has its source

We bring together in one place what is scattered today. Each page covers one subject, with a direct headline, a chart when it helps and a short text, written to be read on a phone.

Every fact comes from an official record or the press, and was checked before going in. The number in brackets leads to the source, with outlet, date and link. If you find an error, tell us: we fix it and record the correction.
