Reforest the Amazon Basin

Reforest the Amazon Basin, Brasilien

Our project aims to reforest areas of the Amazon rainforest impacted by illegal deforestation. The loss of vegetation has caused severe environmental imbalances, and we are working to restore these regions. This effort is essential in combating climate change, biodiversity loss, and other environmental damage.

Projektbeschreibung

Created in 1999, the project aims to contribute for a critical society formation, aware of its socio-economic and environmental context, capable of proposing a development model for the Amazon region that combines conservation and sustainability with quality life improvement for local populations. The project has become a regional reference and today has the largest capacity and knowledge of forest recovery in southwestern Amazon, having planted over 4 million trees.

We planted already 40,000 trees in Rio Preto Jacundá Extractive Reserve (2020/2021 planting season), 30,000 trees in smallholders in Amazon, Rondônia (2021/2022 planting season), and now 30,000 trees to reforest the rio Madeira watershed (2022/2023 planting season), to conserve biodiversity and serving as shelter for Amazonian fauna species, with the goal to fix carbon and reforest areas in accordance with the Brazilian Forest Code.

The selection of native species of economic interest (cocoa, cupuaçu, açaí, amazon nuts, andiroba) is intended to increase the family income of the traditional local population. Our project thus makes it possible to support the local population towards a sustainable production method.
