A controversial dam project in northern Brazil promised progress. Instead, it brought water disputes, environmental disruption, and damaged the livelihoods of the indigenous riverine population. Former president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva pushed ahead with the project, despite the region's exuberant beauty, endemic fauna and flora and clashes with indigenous communities. The hydroelectric plant was eventually inaugurated in 2016. Now, Lula is running for a third term in office, and locals say they're still suffering the effects of the dam, which retains too much water for the upkeep of the region’s biodiversity.

Eloá Rodrigues luce resplandeciente con un vestido rojo enjoyado. La reina de belleza brasileña sabe lo afortunada que es: en el país más mortífero del mundo para las personas trans, se atreve a vivir sus sueños. La esbelta joven de 29 años parte el domingo para representar a Brasil en Miss International Queen en Tailandia, el también llamado «Miss Universo Trans». Y se considera una «excepción» increíblemente afortunada, dado su lugar de origen. Vive en la ciudad pobre y violenta de Sao Gonçalo, en un lado de la bahía de Rio de Janeiro, la segunda área metropolitana más grande de Brasil, el país que ha registrado el récord de asesinatos de personas trans en los últimos 14 años. Video: Carlos Fabal.

For a month, Thuany's COVID-19 tests remained positive, and in the following months, the 32-year-old experienced a series of symptoms that kept her off work for six months. The symptoms included systemic infections, memory lapses, pain, fatigue and anxiety, which brought a significant psychological impact. In order to help others who shared similar experiences like her, Thuany is currently working on a PhD studying the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health of Brazilians.

Located in one of the largest and poorest favelas of Rio de Janeiro, the community garden in Manguinhos is considered the biggest in Latin America. The first seed was planted in late 2013 on a parcel of land known then as "crackolandia" because it was home to so many drug addicts. These days the garden feeds hundreds of families a month with produce that is pesticide free and affordable. Video: Carlos Fabal / AFPTV
