Who
we are
and why this project emerged
Through itinerant meetings, we aim to identify needs, potentialities, and opportunities to generate
interaction and processes that contribute to improving the quality of life for local communities.
This momentum to create "New Alliances for the Amazon" aims to promote a sustainable and inclusive development of the Amazon region through the integration of social, governmental, economic, scientific, technological, and innovative sectors.
The organizations involved in this initiative, namely universities, research centers, technology, entrepreneurship, technological and social innovation entities, are important agents for achieving sustainable and inclusive development towards the Amazon region's integration.
The Amazonian Meetings Pre-COP 30 – New Alliances for the Amazon contribute to the integration of the social, governmental, economic, scientific, technological, and innovative sectors to implement concrete actions in the region. They aim to identify needs, potentialities, and opportunities to generate interaction and processes that contribute to improving the quality of life for local communities.
Reaching out various locations in the Pan-Amazon region, being supported by local partners and institutions will be key. Promoting an itinerant initiative will get strength from the increased mobilization of institutions and civil society entities in the framework of the United Nations Conference on Climate Change (COP). Its 30th edition will take place late 2025 in Brazil, in the city of Belém/PA, Brazil).
As a collaborative process, the initiative will lead to the COP-30 meeting in 2025. During the event, we intend to promote the Amazonian perspective and knowledge, and alternative propositions for local development in order to build wider alliances and impact the international community.



PROGRAM AND THEMES
By promoting dialogue between knowledge and building intersectoral and institutional alliances, main themes will be identified in order to meet the objectives of the project. These are aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), for example the field of bioeconomy, and the opportunities for expressing the region's cultural and natural diversity. Special attention will be given to initiatives related to solidar and sustainable tourism, Amazonian “gastronomy”, the valorization of indigenous, riverine, and quilombola culture, and the recognition of the population's development paths implemented in this territory.
