Human Rights

Anistia Internacional

"At Anistia International Brasil, we value partnerships grounded in presence, listening, and commitment to those who need it most. In a context marked by deep inequalities and recurring human rights violations, AIEP demonstrates through its partnership with us a genuine commitment to communities and territories that have been historically neglected. It is a partnership built on trust, respect, and the conviction that the promotion of human rights necessarily depends on strengthening local struggles. "

Education

Fundação Estudar

"AIEP is a recognized leader in strategic philanthropy, supporting a wide range of organizations and projects focused on health, the environment, education, and human rights. Beyond providing financial resources, the association dedicates time and expertise to help the organizations it supports strengthen and expand their impact. At Fundação Estudar, we have had the honor of benefiting from AIEP’s dedication for more than a decade. More recently, this partnership has also extended to the new Climate Fellow scholarship initiative, aimed at developing talent working on environmental and climate issues, in which AIEP serves both as a donor and as a member of the selection committee."

Debora Ribeiro

Ação Social

"AIEP demonstrates an inspiring, thoughtful, and deeply committed approach to philanthropy that goes far beyond financial support. It is a partnership built on listening, trust, and a shared sense of purpose, always attentive to real social needs. This thoughtful approach strengthens our organization and expands opportunities to transform the lives of children, adolescents, and young people, generating positive impact and hope for the future."

Viva Vida

"From our very first conversations, we realized there was a difference in working with AIEP. They took the time to listen carefully to what we had to say in order to understand our context and the needs of the community we serve. That’s not to say they aren’t rigorous in assessing how we approach our work and the solutions we provide. However, they do so without imposing pre-existing models, respecting our knowledge and experience. They understand the challenges we face and, through support that goes beyond the financial, help us with genuine care and solidarity. We are truly grateful."

Anspaz

"AIEP's contribution extends far beyond supporting ANSPAZ; it is reflected in a strategic and collaborative engagement that amplifies our achievements. Its dedicated support for Santo Tomás de Aquino School strengthens our initiatives and generates lasting impact by fostering the autonomy of the human person and creating meaningful opportunities for the future."

Environment

Sea Shepherd

"AIEP offers a philanthropic approach that is highly aligned with the most contemporary practices among philanthropic foundations: a form of philanthropy that recognizes that impact-driven organizations need trust, flexible funding, and genuine relationships in order to create deep and lasting change. More than simply providing financial support for projects, AIEP demonstrates a real commitment to the causes it supports, closely follows results, understands the structural challenges involved in the work, and celebrates each achievement alongside us. This creates a more human, strategic, and effective relationship grounded not only in accountability, but also in partnership, a long-term vision, and a shared commitment to systemic transformation."

Nathalie Gil

Amazonia 4

"The partnership between Amazonia 4.0 Institute and AIEP is reflected in a committed effort toward structural transformation, financial autonomy, and collective action for a more just, inclusive, and sustainable Amazon. AIEP’s role goes beyond providing financial support to initiatives. The institution values listening, trust, and long-term relationships with its partners, recognizing that strengthening initiatives that combine forest conservation, income generation, and social innovation creates the conditions for local populations to become protagonists in building concrete pathways toward an innovative bioeconomy."

Bárbara Ferreira

Greenpeace

"AIEP’s approach to philanthropy stands out for its genuine engagement with the organizations and causes it supports. Beyond providing financial support, AIEP follows results closely, asks thoughtful questions, fosters strategic conversations, and positions itself as an active partner in creating impact, while always respecting the autonomy of the organizations it supports. For us at Greenpeace, it is extremely valuable to work with partners who combine trust, closeness, and a genuine commitment to the transformations we seek to achieve in the world."

Renata Linhares

Igarapé

"The partnership with AIEP has been fundamental to the work of Instituto Igarapé, and not only because of the financial support. What truly sets this relationship apart is the way AIEP approaches philanthropy: it is not about writing a check and walking away, but about genuinely engaging, fostering building dialogue, contributing expertise, and opening strategic connections that make a meaningful difference. Thanks to this partnership, we have been able to access highly influential networks, expand our international presence, and advance initiatives that would otherwise have taken us much longer to achieve on our own. It is a relationship built on trust over time, and one that continues to inspire us moving forward. "

Bernardo Lima

Ilhas do Rio

"AIEP’s support for the Ilhas do Rio initiative is fundamental to the sustainability and growth of our actions. The institution's philanthropy goes far beyond financial backing; it translates into strategic involvement and a collaborative vision that amplifies our results, generating real impacts on the ocean and society. This partnership model drives us to believe and to stay in constant motion, always striving for institutional strengthening."

Aline Aguiar

WWF International

"WWF’s partnership with AIEP is a powerful example of how strategic, values-driven philanthropy can accelerate global conservation impact. AIEP have been early supporters across a range of conservation efforts, including coral reef protection; whale conservation by protecting blue corridors; action to stop deep sea mining; and river dolphin conservation in Brazil. AIEP has played a catalytic role in enabling WWF to test, scale and sustain innovative solutions for these critical initiatives. Beyond their generous funding, AIEP brings a spirit of true partnership, offering strategic insight, fostering collaboration across organisations, and helping to open new pathways for philanthropic engagement. Their belief in WWF’s science-based, community-driven approach has helped drive both policy influence and on-the-ground conservation, with their early support for coral reef conservation alone unlocking significant additional funding and momentum. Together, we are advancing ambitious solutions to protect our natural world for future generations."

Shalini Mehan

WWF Brazil

"AIEP has been a strategic partner in strengthening WWF-Brazil’s ocean agenda. Its support has been instrumental in expanding the initiative’s robustness, reach, and capacity to generate meaningful impact. Thanks to this partnership, we have been able to enhance our work in public policy, marine conservation, multi-stakeholder engagement, and advocacy in key national decision-making spaces. At a critical moment for the future of the oceans, AIEP’s commitment and long-term vision have been essential in accelerating solutions and helping build a lasting legacy for marine conservation in Brazil."

Health

Unicef

"For UNICEF, philanthropy should generate lasting social impact by strengthening public policies, human rights, and opportunities for vulnerable populations through strategic and sustainable partnerships. AIEP’s work is aligned with this vision by supporting initiatives in the areas of health, education, environmental sustainability, and human rights, including UNICEF projects focused on mental health and the development of vulnerable adolescents in Peru. "

Brena Coelho

World Health Organization Foundation

"At the WHO Foundation, we believe transformative change happens when philanthropists invest in solutions that strengthen health systems and deliver lasting improvements in global health. Our partnership with AIEP reflects exactly that ambition, supporting WHO's efforts to strengthen neurological care and dementia services so that earlier diagnosis and quality care become accessible to more people, regardless of where they live."

Catarina Mastellaro

ImpulsoGov

"AIEP has been a strategic partner for ImpulsoGov in strengthening the organization institutionally. One of the most important aspects of this partnership is the way AIEP approaches follow-up and engagement: our exchanges go far beyond reporting requirements and genuinely contribute to reflecting on the organization’s challenges, identifying areas for improvement, and exploring paths for more consistent growth and impact. It is a partnership built on trust, transparency, and a shared focus on the results ImpulsoGov has been achieving."
