Motriz

Motriz is a non-profit organization dedicated to strengthening local governments in Brazil to ensure they deliver high-quality services for all. We focus on promoting ethnic-racial equity, gender equity, and socio-environmental sustainability. Born from the merger of Vetor Brasil and Instituto Gesto, Motriz unites two organizations that, for eight years, followed distinct paths but shared the same long-term vision: building institutional capacity in governments as a key driver for a more just country. Vetor Brasil worked with around 8,000 professionals across more than 200 public institutions, while Instituto Gesto impacted approximately 2 million students in 30 regions across the country. Our approach focuses on designing, disseminating, and supporting the implementation of methodologies, tools, and training programs to develop public sector leadership and strengthen governance.
