What an ECAHLI Job Actually Is

Not Just a Job.
A Complete Life.

ECAHLI exists to give people a real alternative — a fresh start in a place where your past does not define your future, where your family is safe, and where dignity, equality and purpose are not words on a poster. They are how life actually works, every day.

Every ECAHLI role comes with a formal employment contract, a structured training pathway, and the full Active Resident benefit package. Your salary is real. Your security is structural. ECAHLI is held in permanent trust for future generations — it cannot be sold, dissolved or taken away.

Understanding the 555 Figure

The 356 direct zone roles shown below are operational positions across 8 zones at Year 5. The remaining 199 positions comprise construction-phase roles (Years 1–3), community management, cross-community support functions, apprentices transitioning to full employment, and expansion roles activated as the community reaches full occupancy. All 555 are formal employment contracts.

01
Formal Contract — From Day One
Every ECAHLI role is a formal employment contract. In Brazil, this means a CLT contract. In Kenya, a permanent direct employment agreement at minimum 2.5× statutory minimum wage. In Paraguay, compliant with national labour law. You are not a volunteer, a community member in exchange for services, or an informal worker. You are an employee.
02
On-the-Job Training as Standard
Every entry-level role includes structured on-the-job training from the start. You do not need to already be fully skilled to begin. ECAHLI deploys technologies that do not exist elsewhere in many of these markets — and trains every person who works here to use them.
03
A Guardian, Not Just an Employee
Active Members are permanent beneficiaries of ECAHLI under the Foundation's constitutional framework. You are a steward of something built to last for generations — not an employee who can be made redundant when conditions change.
04
Promotion by Merit — Always
Management roles at ECAHLI are filled from within first. What you have contributed, what you have learned, and what you bring to the people around you is your CV — not your degree, not your background, not who you know. Every role is a door, not a ceiling.

Secured for Generations
ECAHLI is held in permanent trust by the Dutch Foundation. No individual, board or government can sell it, dissolve it or take it away. Your home, income, healthcare and your children's education are secured structurally — not as a promise dependent on any individual's goodwill.
02
215+ Communities. Unlimited Opportunity.
When a new ECAHLI community is established anywhere in the world, its leadership team is drawn first from experienced Active Members. Performing well in Brazil could see you leading a community in Africa, Asia-Pacific or Europe. Your ECAHLI career is not limited to one site.

Equal Voice. Real Democracy.
Every Active Member votes on community decisions. Every voice counts equally. No member is worth more than any other. No role outranks another person's dignity. ECAHLI is not a hierarchy — it is a governed community where every resident has constitutional standing.
"

Management and promotions at ECAHLI are based on what you have to offer, what you bring to the community, and the magic you create in the lives of the people around you — not by favours, not by qualifications, and not by who you know.

International Applicants

Visa & Immigration —
Frequently Asked Questions.

ECAHLI welcomes applicants from every country. We work with accredited Brazilian immigration lawyers to support every international member through the visa and residency process. You do not need a visa before you apply — your application comes first.

Do I need a Brazilian visa before applying?
No. Apply first. ECAHLI assesses your skills, experience and values. If you are offered a role, our immigration team will guide you through the correct visa pathway for your nationality. We begin the visa process together — you do not carry it alone.
Which visa category applies to ECAHLI workers?
Most international workers will enter Brazil on a VITEM V (Work Visa), granted upon a signed CLT employment contract. Professionals in regulated fields (medicine, engineering, education) may require registration with the relevant Brazilian council (CFM, CREA, MEC). ECAHLI's legal team will advise you on the specific requirements for your profession and nationality.
How long does the visa process take?
Processing times vary by nationality and consulate. A standard VITEM V typically takes 4–12 weeks from submission. ECAHLI will provide all supporting documentation — your employment contract, housing guarantee letter, and financial support documents — from day one to minimise delays.
Can my family come with me?
Yes. Spouses, partners and dependent children are eligible for Dependent Visas (VITEM XI), processed alongside or after your work visa. ECAHLI provides housing for your full family from day one — a 2 or 3-bedroom home, free healthcare and free schooling for every child. All family members are fully included in the community at no additional cost.
Do I need to speak Portuguese?
Not before you arrive. ECAHLI is a multilingual community. Onboarding is conducted in English, Spanish, Portuguese and Afrikaans. Portuguese language classes are offered free to all international members as part of your first-year integration programme. Proficiency is expected within 12 months for most roles, and full support is provided to get there.
Can I apply from Africa, Europe or Asia?
Yes — we actively encourage global applications. ECAHLI is a Dutch Foundation with a global network. We have members joining from South Africa, the Netherlands, Ireland, Poland, Latvia, the UK, the USA, Zimbabwe, Ghana, and beyond. If you have the right skills and values, your location is no barrier. Interviews are conducted by video call. Relocation support is provided.
Will ECAHLI sponsor my visa costs?
ECAHLI covers the cost of legal and immigration support for all successful applicants — including preparation of employer documentation, legal review and support from our retained immigration law firm. Government visa fees are the responsibility of the applicant (typically R$200–R$450 BRL depending on category). We will confirm exact costs for your nationality at the time of your offer.
What happens to my visa if my role changes?
Once you are an Active Member, ECAHLI handles any visa amendments required when your role evolves or you transition to a new zone. After 4 years of continuous residence in Brazil, most nationalities become eligible to apply for Permanent Residency (RNE). ECAHLI will actively support this process.

ECAHLI's immigration support is provided by accredited Brazilian immigration lawyers. All information above is general guidance only and does not constitute legal advice. Your specific visa pathway will be confirmed by our legal team at time of offer. Requirements may vary by nationality, profession and Brazilian federal policy.
