Rioterra is co creating the future of the Amazon region with community engagement, science and innovation

Rioterra is an innovation center - celebrating 25 years - focused on ecological restoration and sustainable development in the Amazon.
Rioterra is locally born and based, their work combines science, technology, and community engagement to restore degraded areas, recover biodiversity, and capture carbon.

More than implementation, Rioterra proposes a new perspective for sustainable development — one that centers local knowledge, strengthens communities, and reimagines development through the Amazon logic and cycles.

Led by a diverse team, including many women scientists, Rioterra creates context-based solutions that generate both environmental and social impact.

One of the most serious Conservation/Restoration organization I have worked with

The Centro De Estudos RioTerra is one of the most serious organization I have worked with in the field of Forest Landscape Restoration.
They have a very strong experience and a solid track-record built through more than 20 years of practice. Rio Terra develops excellent projects that address ecological, social and economic issues with innovative, carefully chosen and very-well executed strategies. I really appreciate the fact that their work is based upon strong environmental science and at the same time places stakeholder engagement at its center .
I enjoy working with them very much, and I wish them the best of success in their future projects!

CENTRO DE ESTUDOS RIOTERRA: an ethical, responsible and active NGO in Brazil

Centro de Estudos Rioterra is one of the most serious non-governmental organizations in Brazil I know. I have known this institution and its managers for almost 10 years and I have noticed its exceptional degree of professional qualification and high ethical level. Its work, in addition to being technically serious, has a commitment to environmental quality and social responsibility with poor communities in the Amazon.
