The municipality of Maricá has implemented several social, energy, and health initiatives. The ‘O Sol Nasce para Todos’ program began installing solar panels in the homes of families relocated from high-risk areas, with an ultimate goal of providing solar energy access to 8,000 families to reduce electricity costs.

In addition to renewable energy efforts, the local government expanded its social assistance through the Locação Social program, providing rent assistance to 100 families. Public health efforts include the ‘Semana Rosa’ campaign, which offers preventive exams and vaccinations, alongside mobile health caravans providing medical consultations and testing in specific areas.

Local administration has also engaged with labor sectors, scheduling meetings with delivery workers and motorcycle taxi drivers to discuss working conditions. Meanwhile, the Rio de Janeiro State Court of Accounts ordered the suspension of a R$ 6.5 million bidding process for cemetery waste incineration due to cited irregularities.
