In 2015, the Lina Galvani Institute sought to strengthen its relationship with its stakeholders, with highlights to the Second Meeting of Communities Impacted by Large Projects (II Encontro de Comunidades Impactadas por Grandes Empreendimentos), when the Institute launched the "Perspectives on community development - 10 perspectives on the impact generated by large projects" (Olhares sobre o desenvolvimento comunitário - 10 perspectivas do impacto gerado por grandes empreendimentos) publication, which inspired a significant discussion with professionals of different backgrounds, careers and segments.

We also continued to consolidate our community development methodology, with the creation of an integrated system of evaluation and reporting that contributes to a better understanding of our performance and impact, promoting the dialogue with members, community and other stakeholders.
Additionally, we attended and presented our cases in the Sixth RedEAmérica International Forum, in Mexico, in the "Governance in Foundations and Business Institutes" course, promoted by the IBGC (Brazilian Institute of Corporate Governance) and the GIFE (Institutes, Foundations and Companies Group), and in the latest edition of the series of debates on evaluation, organized by the Fonte Institute and FICAS.

Regarding the territories where we operate, in the town of Campo Alegre de Lourdes (Bahia), we continued to strengthen the Social Network of Angico, Peixe and surrounding areas, with highlights to our task force in the town square, the 1st Social Network Fair, another incubation cycle for social productive businesses and initiatives to strengthen the local public administration.

In Serra do Salitre (Minas Gerais), our activities related to the Future Agenda built over 2015 inspired workshops on project planning and network activities, as well as the support of initiatives to improve local education, a topic widely discussed in the meetings.

The Fioravante Galvani Park, located in Luís Eduardo Magalhães (Bahia), continued to fulfill its many commitments to the conservation of the Brazilian Cerrado, which included supporting the Maned Wolf Conservation Program, the birth of new animals – two of which representatives of endangered species - guided tours open to the community and schools in the region, in addition to large media attention.

In São Paulo (São Paulo), the Institute resumed its activities in the Jaguaré area, renewing its dialogue with the local community and building new partnerships to improve quality of life in the neighborhood.
