Digaaí -
[dig-ă-ēē ]
To give your opinion; popular Brazilian expression
used as a greeting such as “What’s up?” or “How are
you doing?”
di-ga [verb] – to say; to express; to enunciate; to
present an idea or opinion; to inform or affirm
a-í [adverb] – here; in this place; close to the person
you’re speaking with
What is
Digaai?
A web-based platform to
aggregate and curate the
cultural production of Brazilian
immigrants and transnationals
around the world
Why
Digaai?
To help Brazilian immigrants
and transnationals to circulate
ideas, symbols and data, and to
facilitate the construction of a
shared narrative
What we still narrate in the
language of immigration, is
actually a series of processes
whereby global elements are
localized
Immigrants?
Transnationals?
We are Here
and There
This new reality creates new
forms of citizen action, civic
engagement and community
life in the countries of origin and
in the countries of destination
