REFLORA Project - Ecological Recovery and Implementation of Multifunctional Agroforestry Systems

The REFLORA Project began in 2024 to restore degraded areas in the Puranga Conquista Sustainable Development Reserve (SDR), located in the Lower Rio Negro region of Manaus. The initiative directly benefits indigenous and riverside communities through biodiversity conservation and income generation.

With the goal of restoring 200 hectares of degraded areas, REFLORA uses species native to the Amazon, agroforestry systems (a mixture of trees and crops such as fruit and vegetables) and the regeneration of secondary forests. Through environmental restoration, the project aims to strengthen the economy of the RDS’s 18 communities, focusing on seed collection, seedling production and connections with forest product markets.
