FROM SÃO PAULO
An ambitious project of former president Lula da Silva, the "Memorial da Democracia" museum, is on standby.
It was intended to occupy an area of 4,300 square meters in the center of São Paulo, with items of Lula's personal collection, but now it will become a website.
The "Memorial da Democracia" would be an interactive museum which would tell the story of Brazilian democracy.
It had been one of Lula's plans since 2010, when he left office.
But the crisis begun by the Federal Police investigations in the Car Wash Operation scared away traditional donors and the presence of a group of homeless people in the area that had been reserved, as well as legal obstacles, led to the cancelation of the plan.
The first module of the website will be launched next month. It covers the period between 1964 and 2002.
