Foz do Iguaçu is located at the border between three South American States: Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil.

This is the third city of Brazil for dead murdered.

If you don't have the money for private courses that give you professionalism, you are out of the labour market.

The Fundaçao Nosso Lar is an NGO that assists orphan children and teenagers, abandoned or waiting for judgment.
