The São Paulo Municipal Secretariat for Human Rights and Citizenship (SMDHC) will maintain, throughout Carnival, 11 tents to welcome victims of sexual harassment, LGBTQIA+phobia and racism. Points have been available since this Saturday (3), pre-carnival date.
The tents will be open from 10am to 7pm and will be next to the medical aid stations and accompanied by a mobile unit. Support teams, dressed in hot pink t-shirts, will circulate between the blocks and give instructions to revelers on how to proceed if they are harassed or harassed and, if necessary, direct them to specialized assistance.

The structure is part of the Protocolo Não se Cale campaign, to combat harassment and sexual harassment. The campaign will be disseminated in street blocks and among revelers at the Sambadrome.
At the Sambódromo, the secretariat team will be present every day, from the Access Group parade, this Saturday, to the champions parade, on the 17th.
With a tent in the site's service corridor, the team on duty will have the support of the Guardiã Maria da Penha program, from the municipality's Civil Guard, and will ensure that the person assisted can reach a vehicle if travel is necessary. In addition, sound warnings will be broadcast between parades with instructions and informative posters will be placed in strategic locations. During the samba school parade, between one performance and another, banners will be displayed with messages that reinforce the discourse around respect for women and diversity.
During the carnival period, bracelets will also be distributed to the public to identify children, to make it easier to locate them if they become lost from their guardians. If an adult goes missing, the Family Locator and Missing Persons Division service may also be called.
