Friar Luciano invited all of them to participate in a project aimed at the dissemination of refugees that is being developed in partnership with national and international organizations. In this first stage, strategies are being studied to distribute the refugees concentrated in Roraima and Manaus into 12 capital cities of Brazil, so that they can have opportunities to rebuild the life they left behind in Venezuela. Considering that Brazil faces for the first time a humanitarian crisis, the joint effort of public and private institutions becomes necessary to handle the demand and bring about efficient solutions.
