About us
“To become a displaced person all you need is to be at wrong time, in the wrong place.”
The idea behind Global Plenitude came about in 2017, after the co-founder Paula Morais listened to a TED Talk given by Alexander Betts about how the refugee system is failing and how it can be fixed.
At the time, Paula was working with Syrian refugees in Jordan and Lebanon and therefore, had been having direct contact with the refugee-crisis. She felt like something innovative had to be done to in order to create a deeper positive impact in these people’s lives.
Paula Morais currently works as a global advisor and project manager on adaptive leadership, digital ubiquity and transformation, and openness – with past projects in Europe, North America, Africa, Middle East, Caribbean and Latin America.
It is a challenge to create change alone. Besides the co-founder Paula Morais, Global Plenitude consists of a team of four creative and skilled individuals with diverse background and age that together aim to make a difference in refugees’ and asylum-seekers’ lives.
We hope that you join us on this journey.
