plus55 is the first media outlet created to bring content about Brazil to foreign audiences. It was conceived by a group of Brazilian journalists who wanted to help solve a big problem: misinformation and disinformation about our country. We feel that the international media has neglected Brazil for decades. Now, it concentrates its coverage primarily on economics. While it’s an important issue, economics alone cannot help you understand all of Brazil’s complexities. Brazil is a land of contradiction and nuance. But don’t worry. We’re here to help.
