This is possible to achieve through campaigns that not only spread information and promote awareness but also shed light on the current issues faced by these people. MAIS interacts with public institutions, the civil society, the national and international organization and the local community in order to promote economic and social democracy in the world, promoting the sustainable development of local populations and their participation in this process. MAIS promotes the participation and the role of the socially vulnerable groups, sectors, such as small producers, women, underaged, all the individuals discriminated against, exploited and marginalized to whom freedom and rights are not recognized, and supports different forms of exchange of experiences, both within the various countries of the South of the world in which it operates, and between the North and the South, with the purpose of encouraging information and reflection on the causes of injustice, exploitation and social and economic inequality.
