    Social-Economic  Reparation

    Committed to fully making the reparation of the damage resulting from the collapse of Dam B1, both in Brumadinho and in the affected municipalities along the Paraopeba river basin, we invest in training projects and support for entrepreneurship.

    These projects aim to strengthen existing production chains in the municipalities, such as tourism and agriculture, to reduce the region's economic dependence on mining activities. In this way, we contribute to increasing the population's family income and to local economic development.

     

    In addition to this direct support, we also carry out projects indicated on the Socioeconomic Reparation front of the Full Reparation Agreement, signed with the government of Minas, the Federal Prosecution Office, the Public Prosecution Office and the Public Defender's Office of MG.

    Strengthening tourism

    Brumadinho Tourism Program

    The program is an initiative by Vale, in partnership with Rede Terra, organizations, and entrepreneurs, launched in 2019 through participatory workshops with the local tourism trade. Its goal is to develop the tourism sector in Brumadinho with structured actions. In 2024, the program entered a new phase focused on the sustainable management of tourism products and services, strengthening governance and sustainability, improving competitiveness, and fostering tourism intelligence. The initiative also includes developing projects, hosting events, creating mechanisms for financial access within the tourism production chain, and promoting ESG practices among local businesses.

    Strengthening Tourism Governance

    On this front, we work to strengthen the sector's articulation and support it in defining priority actions for the development of tourism.

    Improving the Competitiveness of Tourism Funds

    Here, we carry out a diagnosis of tourism funds and build a prognosis with the actions required for the insertion of municipalities in the tourism production chain.

    Restructuring and Development of Tourism Events

    Our objective with this project is to restructure and develop existing or potential tourist events in the municipality. 

    Development of Access to Financial Funds for the Tourism Production Chain 

    In this project, we developed financing mechanisms for the tourism chain and trained the various actors in the sector in the region, such as associations, entrepreneurs, local leaders, among others.

    Strengthening the Competitiveness of the Private Tourism Sector – Veredas Tourist Circuit 

    We support tourism in five municipalities of the Veredas do Paraopeba Tourist Circuit: Brumadinho, Igarapé, Juatuba, Mário Campos and São Joaquim de Bicas. 

    Through simple investments, customized advice and concrete deliveries, such as, for example, the supply of promotional material and image bank, we support several local enterprises that make up the tourist route.

    Languages

    The English language is essential in the tourism sector. For this reason, in February 2021, we created a customized program to develop tourism professionals in Brumadinho, focusing on specific vocabulary related to the field.

    So far, 166 students have participated in the Language Program. Currently, 44 students are benefiting from online classes.

    Resignification of the Córrego do Feijão

    We have the big challenge of providing the resignification of the regions affected by the collapse of the Córrego do Feijão dam, on January 25, 2019, with extreme socio-environmental impacts in Brumadinho.

    Among the proposals are the renovation of the Central Square, the construction of the Community Market and the Culture and Handicraft Center, the installation of local businesses, driven by the Community Social Entrepreneurship Project, the new paving and public lighting, the installation of filter gardens and the search for alternative water supply, sewage collection and treatment networks.

    The local businesses of Córrego do Feijão are being strengthened through training and advisory services to residents. Currently, 7 businesses are being promoted. After identifying the potential of each of them, we assist in the business plan, invest in startups (seed capital) to consolidate in the market and provide technical support.  
    The Território-Parque Project is the result of dialogue with the region's residents and aims to restore the generation of job and income opportunities. 
    The project was presented to the community at an open event in Central Square in December 2019 and all its updates and advancements continue to be debated.
