Our work is built on two strategic pillars. Through Data & Transparency, we maintain Latin America’s largest database on armed violence, monitoring gunfire incidents across 57 municipalities in four metropolitan regions and collecting over 50 indicators via our mobile application. Our Communication & Innovation strategy is equally important—we have become a reference for digital communication and new narratives in public security, creating engaging content that reaches non-specialized audiences, particularly non-radicalized conservative groups. We avoid stigmatizing victims, focus on clear data visualization, and present complex security issues in accessible formats across digital platforms.

We have generated significant impact throughout Brazil, with our data informing thousands of news reports and academic studies. Public institutions incorporate our information into their systems, and our methodology has been recognized by UN agencies. We have partnered with prosecutors’ offices, helped shape protections for education during armed conflicts, and contributed to important legal cases. By combining technology, strategic communication, and rigorous data collection, we have created a citizen-driven platform that empowers communities to participate in security discussions while building new narratives about effective and humane security policies.
