Brazil

Generous spirit, solidarity and their great sense of humor are among the most significant characteristics of Brazilian people. To all this, add a country with a huge territorial expanse and you will have a land where it is always possible to fit one more. Come to Brazil!

Brazil is a very diverse country. Its coastline stretches 8,500 km along the east, there are rivers and forests in the north and west and its many international borders bring nations and cultures together.

The natural life in Brazil is exquisite and the climate varies from high tropical temperatures in some parts to freezing weather with mountaintops covered with snow in the winter in others. The coastline is made up of thousands of paradisiacal beaches, whilst inland there are huge tropical forests, dense vegetation and sub tropical forests. The ‘Atlantic Woods’ complete the mosaic that makes up the Brazilian territory.

Living in large urban centres, medium cities and small towns, the Brazilian population, composed of many different races, is spread out across the territory like an enormous kaleidoskope where people, cultures and tradition live together in peace and happiness. It is this happiness that we want to share with you in 2011 in Curitiba, Paraná in the south of Brazil, at the 39th World Scout Conference.
