Protected Areas
The Brazilian Conservation Units (UCs), at the same time that they are extremely important for the protection of the country’s biodiversity and the sustainable use of natural resources, have low implementation rates and face challenges in reaching their creation objectives. In order to collaborate with the development of these protected areas, IPÊ performs activities such as the elaboration of management plans for these units, training and projects in partnership with managers, ICMBio (Chico Mendes Biodiversity Institute), state secretariats, city halls, and other organizations related to the creation and implementation of protected areas.
