million tCO₂ in emissions avoided over 30 years
The Rio Madeira REDD+ Project is one of the largest private forest conservation initiatives in the Amazon, focused on protecting over 52,000 hectares of native forest across the states of Amazonas and Rondônia.
By preventing unplanned deforestation, the project contributes to mitigating more than 15 million tons of CO₂ over 30 years, preserving critical ecosystems and promoting sustainable development in the region.
In addition to protecting biodiversity, Rio Madeira strengthens local communities through social programs, environmental education, and sustainable forest management — creating shared value among nature, people, and the economy.
The Rio Madeira Project delivers measurable, large-scale results for people, nature, and the climate:a:
hectares of forest protected — equivalent to 5x the size of Paris
hectares of deforestation avoided (2019–2024)
million tCO₂ in emissions avoided over 30 years
people directly benefited (2023–2025)
A methodology grounded in science, governance, and real impact — connecting conservation, communities, and climate.
The Rio Madeira Project area hosts one of the highest concentrations of Amazonian biodiversity, with over 200 recorded species, including at least 8 that are threatened with extinction. Among the main species are:
Reflects the project’s commitment to generating lasting environmental and social impact, contributing to the global sustainable development agenda.
The Rio Madeira Project strengthens Amazonian communities through initiatives in education, income generation, and environmental conservation, such as:
Rural Schools: In partnership with public schools in Porto Velho, the project promotes environmental education, educational gardens, and soon mobile computer labs — benefiting over 200 students and teachers.
Brazil Nut Collectors: In collaboration with Embrapa, the project trains more than 30 nut collectors, promoting sustainable management, forest conservation, and local income generation.
Rural Settlements: Over 20 small farmers have received internet connectivity (via Starlink) and guidance in sustainable agriculture to help prevent further deforestation.
Warriors of Nature Program: Supported by the project, the group expanded from 9 to 23 students, winning over 40 medals in 2024 — combining sports, education, and environmental awareness.
From wildlife to flora, from communities to the forest — images that capture the environmental and social impact of this initiative in the Amazon.

An article on Embrapa’s portal details how the Rio Madeira Project, through Embrapa’s partner technology, helps families manage Brazil nut harvesting sustainably…
“The project opened our eyes to an economic and environmental potential we had never considered. Today, in addition to taking better care of our land, we are ready to generate additional income through carbon credits.”
