Uma Concertação pela Amazônia

What Uma Concertação pela Amazônia does

Uma Concertação pela Amazônia is a Brazilian non-profit network founded in 2020 that convenes more than 1,600 individuals, dozens of institutions, and companies across the 9-state Legal Amazon (Acre, Amazonas, Amapá, Pará, Rondônia, Roraima, Tocantins, Mato Grosso, Maranhão) to coordinate initiatives for forest conservation and sustainable development. Operationally it is structured around five pillars, plenary sessions, work groups, and three successive knowledge cycles, with the supporting Instituto de Apoio a Uma Concertação Pela Amazônia (CNPJ 59.121.164/0001-10, headquartered at Av. Nove de Julho 5617, São Paulo) handling institutional operations, donations, and project execution. The technology layer is a digital convening stack rather than a commercial product: the Espiral de Conhecimento (currently in Cycle 3, 421 registered studies across 21 thematic axes including governance, financing, bioeconomy, climate, culture, and indigenous communities), the Mapa de Plataformas directory indexing 61 thematic platforms across 13 categories, the Cadernos da Concertação publication series, the Atlas Cultural das Amazônias artist registry, and a virtual gallery/event calendar. The organization does not sell products or subscriptions; instead, revenue flows from institutional funders and government partners who channel program money through the platform - including Fundo Amazônia (Programa Desafios da Amazônia, R$6-8M per project, 9-12 projects, up to 36 months), WRI Brasil and Sitawi (Fundo Flora), Fundo Brasil (Raízes), Fundo Casa Socioambiental (R$2.1M Mulheres que Transformam), Fundo Ecos/ISPN/Forests, People, Climate (TAIPAS), MDIC/Centro de Bionegócios da Amazônia (CBA OPEN), four federal ministries (Comitê Nacional de Enfrentamento ao Racismo Ambiental e Climático), FAPEAM/FAPESP (Articula Bio CT&I), MPA/UFPA/FADESP (Culturas Pesqueiras, R$2,341,800), Cietec (InovaClima Brasil 2026), TEDxAmazonia, and others. The go-to-market is community-led: open registration on the website, multi-language publications (PT/EN/ES), events, exhibitions, and press outreach. The entity is privately held civil society organization with no equity investors or public shareholders.

2. Instituto de Apoio: The supporting institute (Instituto de Apoio a Uma Concertação Pela Amazônia, CNPJ: 59.121.164/0001-10) manages institutional operations, donations, and project execution.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Tropical Forest Alliance: Global public-private partnership hosted at WRI focused on reducing tropical deforestation linked to commodity supply chains. Comparable convening model across sectors and geographies, but operates internationally with a commodity-supply-chain lens rather than Amazon territorial development.
• Forest Stewardship Council (FSC): Global multi-stakeholder organization setting standards for responsible forest management. Comparable in its tri-sector (economic, social, environmental) governance model and convening of diverse stakeholders, though it operates as a global standards body rather than a regional network.
• IMAZON: Amazonian research institute focused on forestry, land use, and socio-environmental policy. Comparable Amazon focus, but primarily a research producer rather than a multi-stakeholder convener.
• Instituto Socioambiental (ISA): Established Brazilian NGO focused on indigenous peoples, traditional communities, and Amazon environmental issues. Comparable in stakeholder and indigenous engagement, with deeper implementation capability and longer track record than Concertação.
• World Resources Institute Brasil (WRI Brasil): Established sustainability research and policy organization operating in Brazil with a broader global footprint. Comparable as a knowledge producer and policy convener, but broader in scope and better resourced; partner (not competitor) to Concertação via Fundo Flora.
• Instituto de Pesquisa Ambiental da Amazônia (IPAM): Amazon-focused research institute producing scientific knowledge for sustainable development. Comparable thematic focus on the Amazon, but operates a direct research and field-implementation model rather than a pure convening role.

Direct peers

• Amazon 2030: Multi-institutional initiative producing indicators and policy proposals for the sustainable development of the Brazilian Amazon. Comparable in producing integrated agendas and cross-sector proposals for the Legal Amazon, though more research- and indicator-oriented.
• Observatório do Clima: Brazilian network of civil society organizations tracking climate policy, emissions, and environmental governance. Comparable as a thematic network that consolidates research and policy advocacy across multiple organizations, though more climate-specific than Amazon-focused.
• Coalizão Brasil Clima, Florestas e Agricultura: Multi-stakeholder Brazilian coalition convening government, private sector, civil society, and academia on climate, forest, and agriculture policy. Directly comparable to Concertação's convening model and Brazil-wide sustainability remit, though with stronger private-sector anchoring.
• Grupo de Trabalho Amazônico (GTA): Amazon-focused network of civil society and traditional peoples' organizations. Closely comparable in convening indigenous, quilombola, and traditional communities for sustainable Amazon development, with a longer operating history.
