BIOECONOMY
We structured and implemented projects for Sustainable Management of Non-Timber Forest Products with a focus on the social and economic development of traditional communities.
We understand that the true social and economic transformation of the Amazon comes from generating employment and income through forest agro-extractivism and the management of non-timber products.
Working with products of interest to the Amazonian ingredients industry
100% Forest Mapping and Inventory in the EBCF areas
Structuring the supply chain together with communities
Combination of different technologies for product traceability
A business model that involves the entire value chain, comprising:
Cosmetics
Food
Pharmacists
Nutraceuticals
We believe that the bioeconomy is the main tool for promoting social and economic transformation in the Amazon.
