sustainability with a different approach
About
Founded and chaired by Oskar Metsavaht, UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador for a Culture of Peace and Sustainability, Instituto-E is a Civil Society Organization of Public Interest (OSCIP) that, for over 20 years, has authorial concepts and practices to promote more sustainable human development.
Through our own methodology - Sustainable Design Thinking - we connect sustainability, design and strategy to promote a genuine change in mindset, under the social, environmental and governance.
We believe that sharing information is the first step towards contributing to human development, which is why we use creative communication as an essential tool to transform, engage and give voice to socio-environmental causes.
Instituto-E develops and implements projects and initiatives inspired by the 6Es - earth, environment, energy, education, empowerment and economics - in Brazil and abroad, in partnership with institutions such as UNESCO, Ministry of the Environment of Italy, British Chamber of Commerce of Italy (BCCI), UN Ethical Fashion Initiative, WWF, Osklen, Greenpeople, among others.

We believe in sustainability as a process of continuous learning and improvement. We apply the ASAP concept in all our initiatives and inspire our partners to take the first step in the transition to an more responsible and with the least possible socio-environmental impact.
More than a premise, ASAP is a call for everyone to act in the adoption of an increasingly sustainable mindset.
