The Amazon Biocorridor Program is not a piece of territory or a geographically defined area, but it is a conservation management model. It is a comprehensive response to environmental challenges, a resilient solution that operates through innovative mechanisms – both financial and conservation. Thus, the Biocorridor places the Amazon as the protagonist of a program that has the power to transform the future.
