Servants linked to direct and indirect public administration bodies and entities in the consortium states can compete, with projects that encourage the implementation of effective and innovative public policies to guarantee a safer environment for citizens.

Another milestone was the inauguration of the credit line for the Public Security area of ​​the Consortium States, an initiative in partnership with Banco de Brasília. Present at the meeting, the Secretary of Justice and Public Security, Antônio Carlos Videira, explained that the financial resources will be used to boost the modernization of equipment used by security institutions, directly contributing to the effectiveness of operations to combat crime and protect the population .

Finally, a Memorandum of Understanding was signed between the UNDP (United Nations Development Programme) and the Brasil Central Consortium, with a focus on establishing collaboration in relation to the UN 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Barbosinha explained that this agreement aims to engage public servants from the states involved in the 2030 Agenda, while promoting integrated development in the region, combined with environmental preservation and access to international financing instruments for projects related to sustainability.

“This Assembly represents an important milestone in our search for joint solutions to the challenges we face. The union and collaboration between the states of Central Brazil are fundamental to boost the economic and social development of our region”, concluded the governor of Goiás and president of BrC, Ronaldo Caiado.
