ABOUT US
Strategic communication for a truly democratic society
At Teia, every film, video, or post starts with a simple question: how can communication change people's lives? That's what drives our team. Together, we don't just produce content—we create meaning, open space for new voices, and help shift the conversation.
MISSION
Build a democratic culture rooted in human rights capable of resisting and advancing amid cultural warfare and anti-democratic threats.

Meet the space where we create content that transforms. Professional studios, cutting-edge equipment and a collaborative environment in the heart of Belo Horizonte.
Our Manifesto
Teia de Criadores was born in November 2023 as a direct response to the challenges threatening democracy and human rights. Amid polarization, misinformation, and the erosion of public debate, we chose a path: use communication to provoke movement.
From the start, we had a clear ambition: change how messages circulate, who speaks, who listens, and who gains voice. The opening of our headquarters in downtown Belo Horizonte, equipped with studios and state-of-the-art infrastructure, marked more than a beginning. It was proof that quality communication is possible—built collectively, with courage—without surrendering to hate or silence.
In a short time, we created powerful campaigns, strengthened networks, and established Teia as a space for digital activism, social justice, and communication innovation.
We're not just an organization. We're a team that believes communication, when collective and strategic, can open paths to change.
What we've built so far is just the beginning. We continue weaving, together, a new narrative for greater justice and democracy.
