According to H\u00e9lder Faria, one of its members, this occurred naturally because \u201cit is always in an artistic context that awareness is raised.\u201d \u201cOur day-to-day work is a process of gradual change, we change habits slowly. We don\u2019t detach ourselves radically from the system, and we\u2019re attentive to what\u2019s around us.\u201d They believe that they must approach daily tasks in a positive frame of mind. \u201cWe can\u2019t let ourselves become dispirited owing to the difficulties that all of us face today.\u201d<br \/>\nIn order to act against adversity, the group created a self-help network. \u201cIf I need something, I know that I can count on the group with almost blind faith,\u201d says audiovisual technician Ana Pereira. As city life does not allow them to survive from what they produce, they broaden their horizons with small changes of habit. \u201cImagine if everyone grew 10% of their food. What impact might that have, both from the point of view of individual experience and in environmental terms? Bill Molisson (1) , the guru of permaculture, asked exactly this.\u201d One of their main activities is to perform small tasks for free \u2013 which they call \u2018ajudadas\u2019 (literally, \u2018helps\u2019) \u2013 on private properties and for the benefit of the community. They also distribute surplus food. \u201cWe share cars and meals, we create urban vegetable plots, we do composting and voluntary work, we\u2019re careful about consumption. These may appear to be simple things but taken together they are invaluable. Now, imagine if the whole of society made small changes like this.\u201d At present, the group has about fifteen members, but they estimate that there must<br \/>\nbe about three hundred people who have been influenced by this idea.<\/p>\n<div class=\"box shadow  alignleft\" style=\"width:90%\"><div class=\"box-inner-block\"><i class=\"fa tie-shortcode-boxicon\"><\/i>\n\t\t\t\n(1) <a title=\"Bill Mollison - Permaculture\" href=\"http:\/\/www.pt.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bill_Mollison\" target=\"_blank\">www.pt.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bill_Mollison <\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Contacts:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a title=\"Braga in transition Facebook page\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/BragaEmTransicao\" target=\"_blank\">www.facebook.com\/BragaEmTransicao<\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Further information:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a title=\"Transition Network Braga\" href=\"http:\/\/www.transitionnetwork.org\/initiatives\/braga%20\" target=\"_blank\">www.transitionnetwork.org\/initiatives\/braga <\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"Permaculture braga\" href=\"http:\/\/www.permaculturaportugal.ning.com\/%20group\/Braga\" target=\"_blank\">www.permaculturaportugal.ning.com\/ group\/Braga<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div><div class=\"author-info\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"author-img\" src=\"http:\/\/eco123.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/Humberto-Almendra.png\" alt=\"\" \/><div class=\"author-info-content\"><h3>About the author<\/h3>\n\t\t\tHumberto Almendra, 44 years old, Gemini with ascendant in Gemini.
