Macaé, September 23, 2019 – The Escola em Ação, the social responsibility program of Ocyan, has benefited more than 26,000 children and teenagers since 2007 in the municipalities of Macaé and Rio de Janeiro. The actions are defined based on the Sustainability Policy and the Social Responsibility Guideline of the company.

The program was launched with the aim of fostering sustainable development in the communities where Ocyan operates, in addition to prioritizing actions that promote social inclusion, education, cultural and sports promotion, and environmental awareness for young people, integrating school, community, and company.

Legacy

One of the major projects was #Inovareaprender, whose concept of technological education with a proposal for pedagogical innovation allowed participants to use technology to solve problems in an innovative and playful way.

The donation of a 3D printer and a laser cutter to the Project’s Management and Research Center, in the space of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ) – Macaé Campus, enabled students to advance in new solutions. The #Inovareaprender had the support of Ocyan from 2014 to 2018.

“What we hope and propose in all actions of ‘Escola em Ação’ is to maintain a relationship between school, community, and company, support youth entrepreneurship, and raise intellectual capital in the region,” emphasizes Jocelina. Our expectation is also to promote better opportunities and living conditions for children and young people from surrounding communities and to build sustainable citizenship, uniting aspects of Social Responsibility and Sustainability,” she concludes.

Desert sand, previously discarded for being too smooth for concrete, becomes an ecological brick in the United Arab Emirates, dispensing with Portland cement, curing at room temperature, and attempting to transform dunes useless for construction into raw material for a new arid engineering.

Chinese woman planted trees for decades while sand buried part of her house, received $5,000 from an American in 1999, and helped transform the desert into a forest of 8 million trees in China.

In the cold desert of Ladakh, where it hardly rains, engineer Sonam Wangchuk created the ice stupa, a tower that freezes winter water and stores it for irrigating crops in the spring, a simple engineering feat that mimics nature.

Described by astronauts as one of the most unlikely natural phenomena on Earth, the Okavango Delta spreads over up to 15,000 square kilometers in the middle of the desert and transforms Botswana into a living labyrinth of channels, islands, and flooded areas.

Two helicopters, 41 people, and over 38 tons of bait were mobilized on a remote Pacific atoll to eliminate rats; five years later, native trees grew by 5,000%, seabirds gained habitat, and the rainforest began to regenerate.

Government wants to pay up to R$ 8,000 to more than 2,300 traditional families in over 100 communities in Acre and Amazonas for environmental services provided to the Amazon.
