Into the future - Selenis 2023 Sustainability Report

Associação de Recicladores e Catadores Automotores Curitiba, Brazil

In our commitment to making a positive change in our value chain, in 2023 we started our collaboration with a waste collectors association, the Associação de Recicladores e Catadores Automotores (ACA). By assisting them with rent payments, waste collectors experienced immediate financial relief, reducing the risk of eviction and providing stability for their operations. Also, our support for the rent payment ensured that waste collectors could continue their work uninterrupted. This helped them sustain their livelihoods and ensured a consistent income stream, which has been crucial for supporting themselves and their families. Our contribution helped 19 families, benefitting 63 people including 31 children.

Our support has led to the creation of new jobs; there were 9 members in the cooperative before our contribution and today they have grown to 19 - 12 woman and 7 men. Additionally, there has been a notable increase in their monthly income and their average monthly collection, now reaching 3 tonnes per month.
