| Summary: | The New Migration Law of 2017 was a historic win for Brazil. This moment of victory was the
result of years of advocacy from various stakeholders of Brazilian civil society. The road was
not an easy one, but the destination was worth it. As philanthropies routinely aim to build
a better future, policy advocacy emerges as a clear cornerstone for achieving long lasting
change. This article shares the lessons learnt from supporting Missão Paz and Conectas in their
partnership to get the law passed. It outlines the role of philanthropic funders in going beyond
investments to truly unleash the potential of collaborative action. |
