Scholarships for Women’s Qualification from Magalu
According to Ana Luiza Herzog, Magalu’s reputation and sustainability manager, the goal is to contribute to the qualification of those who are financially dependent on their partners or ex-partners, as financial dependency is unfortunately one of the ties that keep them bound to their abusers.
The Magazine Luiza qualification program was created and will be conducted by ComSchool, an institution specialized in e-commerce. Scholarship participants will have four modules totaling over 13 hours of online classes.
