IVECO’s Solidarity Cargo brings connectivity to residents in Piaçabuçu, Brazil
22 Dicembre 2023 - 12:30PM
Turin, 22nd December 2023. IVECO, the brand of
Iveco Group N.V. (EXM: IVG) that designs, manufactures and markets
light, medium and heavy commercial vehicles, once again contributed
to improving the lives of people living in situations of social
vulnerability in Brazil.
Every December since 2015, the IVECO Solidarity
Cargo has journeyed across Brazil to implement a tailored project
that benefits a local community and this year the theme was “Open
windows to create new paths”. The project benefits the residents of
Piaçabuçu, in the Brazilian Northeast, one of the most
disadvantaged regions in the country with very limited access to
the Internet.
The initiative, carried out in collaboration
with the NGO "Olha o Chico", makes use of a space that has been
transformed into a knowledge laboratory. The Solidarity Cargo
efforts will facilitate the development of digital skills among
local youth and elderly, aid in everyday tasks, and provide access
to professional development courses. The activity goes well beyond
transporting cargo; it carries the dreams of thousands who will
enhance their knowledge and improve their lives, and by doing so,
it will shape the future of an entire community.
The Solidarity Cargo project is aligned with
Iveco Group's Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) strategy,
paving the way for the local population in areas where the Group
operates.

documentary video developed by IVECO, detailing the reality of
Piaçabuçu and the impacts of limited internet access.
