About
Engineering for Democracy (EngD)
We are students, technicians and technicians, engineers, professionals from related areas who work in Engineering, masters and doctors in Engineering, who defend Democracy in all its dimensions: social, economic, political and environmental.
We are a group for the sovereignty of Brazil, we believe that the country should be inserted in a multilateral world and built as a solidary society, without distinctions of gender, race, creed or social origin.
We want Engineering to contribute to the reconstruction of Brazil, within the framework of the Democratic State of Law, after we overcome the debacle of the current genocidal government.
We believe in the decisive role of the State, as an inducer of socio-environmentally referenced development for the entire Brazilian population.
