With two holidays and a series of commemorative dates, the month of April is marked mainly by the awareness of the fight against prejudice and the establishment of public policies to guarantee the human rights of indigenous peoples. The date April 19th is dedicated to the celebration of the indigenous culture and heritage throughout our Continent.
This month, besides the 20th anniversary of the Superior School of the Judges of the State of Tocantins (ESMAT), the National Library Day (9th), the National Children's Book Day (18th) and the World Book Day (23rd) are also being celebrated. With this in mind, in commemoration of these dates, Esmat will be holding a campaign to collect literary books for the Awã Canoeiro Indian village.
