The Center

Partners

The International Celso Furtado Center for Development Policies is a not-for-profit civil association under private law of public interest, made up of individuals and corporate bodies, working jointly to promote the entity`s social objectives. Its associates, or partners, can be either associate patrons or individual associates. In either case, their admission depends on the approval of the Deliberative Council, to which prospective candidates should send their applications in writing.   

In addition to participating in the General Assembly, the Center`s highest deliberative entity, partners also have other rights and duties, as set down in the Statutes. Taking into account the fundamental guidance expressed in the works of Celso Furtado, and the primordial objective of the Center, namely to study the development as an instrument to assure a fair distribution of costs and benefits within social and regional plans, the partners are naturally the closest collaborators to the Celso Furtado Center. Today, they number 244.
