About Vincenzo

I am from Sicily, where I have my first family and I collaborate with the BOCS cultural space, and I am from Campania, the land of witches, where I dream of the organic farm T3RRA. I became Brazilian 20 years ago, dreaming and fighting with the Mocambos Network o/. I am a network artisan at the Casa de Cultura Tainã and a breeder at Mercado Sul, where I matured, as an angoleiro, as a marketer at the Eco Feira and supporting Rádio Mercado Sul and the Núcleo DPadua. I am a computer scientist at the Università degli Studi di Firenze, where I participated in the social and student movement Studenti di Sinistra, in the Comitato Kurdistan and in the PoliOpposti newspaper. In 2005, when I arrived here, I worked for a while in the Federal Government, first at GESAC and then at the Presidency of the Republic. But I preferred to return to living in the movement and since 2007 I have coordinated the Digital Research and Development Group of the Mocambos Network. I am one of the creators of the Free Software Baobáxia. I work with people of Popular Culture and Agroecology and I currently live in Guapimirim with my partner and two wonderful daughters :)
