Why this event? Why IBRAM, the mining sector and large industries?

The future of the world is linked to the future of the Amazon. Conserving biodiversity and combating deforestation directly depends on economic alternatives for people living in the Amazon, for their subsistence and development.

The new economies in their diversity (bioeconomy, carbon market and circular, solidarity, regenerative and socio-biodiversity economies, etc.) represent the path to a sustainable future for this region, combining conservation, zero net deforestation, development and social well-being.

Globally moving towards a low-carbon economy that lessens pressure on the climate means going through an energy transition that will require an expansion in the exploration of strategic minerals.

The world must operate in this transition and face climate change. This means an expansion of mining, especially of strategic minerals, for the development of renewable energies and the electrification of means of transport. Part of this expansion will take place in the Amazon.
