The inclusion of people that are facing economic vulnerability in the labor market, through entrepreneurship or employability, so that they can generate a decent income, expand their power of choice, increase their quality of life and contribute to growing the country’s productivity
For this reason, we believe that Productive Inclusion is a fundamental strategy for fighting poverty and inequality, offering the means for the most vulnerable populations to effectively assume full citizenship and contribute to increasing the country’s productivity. The creation of stable, lasting and worthwhile work and income for vulnerable populations helps to tackle the chronic and structural problems of social and economic exclusion that are so prevalent in our country.
Training and insertion strategies in the world of work should favor “learning to learn”, so that the chances of workers’ permanence are long-lasting.
In addition, good practices of Productive Inclusion must be attentive to the issues of environmental sustainability and must take into account the transformations produced by Industry 4.0, which points to new types of occupations and the demands of new technical and socioemotional skills.
Above all, Productive Inclusion needs to be a commitment from all sectors and actors in society, so that its impacts are highly positive, and its effects also contribute to having a more productive and prosperous country.
Our investment decisions are always based on evidence. In addition, we monitor and evaluate our actions to learn, improve and increase potential in our performance, sharing this knowledge with the organizations we support.
We see, in the access to worthwhile and dignified employment, an important way to contribute to the economic inclusion of vulnerable people and to the strengthening of companies and market sectors in which qualified and trained talent is needed.
We invest in organizations that train people with the socio-emotional and technical skills to enter the world of work and connect them with real opportunities to promising employment.
In addition, we invest in initiatives that operate in a network to further the development of an ecosystem for Productive Inclusion, looking at the present opportunities, but also at the skills needed for the future of work and workers.
Aware that the challenges are complex, we seek to encourage other actors to work alongside us on this project, as well as being part of alliances, networks and coalitions that connect efforts to make Productive Inclusion an effective engine of social change in our country.
In addition, we hope to generate relevant evidence from the systematization of these experiences, collaborating so that other agents can benefit from the lessons learned.
We work in partnership with various agents of society to enable initiatives that expand the growth potential of small entrepreneurs in low-income urban areas, as well as family farmers and small producers in rural areas. Always interested in solutions that offer complete programs, including training, advice / mentoring and access to new markets and capital for micro and small entrepreneurs / producers / farmers.
We believe that the promotion of innovation and the strengthening of resilient local economies, both in urban and rural areas, are fundamental factors in combating inequality, generating jobs and income, and helping the country prosper.
In addition to supporting initiatives to strengthen entrepreneurship in Brazil, we hope to generate relevant evidence from the systematization of these experiences, collaborating so that other agents can benefit from the lessons learned.
Understanding that, after the emergency question of health, the field of Productive Inclusion would also be severely affected by the consequences of COVID-19, the Arymax Foundation selected initiatives to provide emergency support to entrepreneurs in low-income and rural areas, and to maintain jobs.
