Biodiversity Conservation

We work with the objective of contributing to the biodiversity conservation in environmental, social and economic aspects.

Climate change

We support decision makers in the climate agenda focused on ecosystem conservation and restoration projects and biodiversity.

Ecosystem restoration

The approaches developed by IIS aim to assist the planning and implementation of vegetation recovery projects, exploring synergies and trade-offs between biodiversity conservation, climate change mitigation and costs, under a variety of scenarios.

Sustainable development

We seek to promote the transition to sustainability, contributing to the balance between socioeconomic development, biodiversity conservation and rational use of natural resources.

Sustainable Land Use

We promote the transition from the traditional agricultural practices to a more sustainable land management, helping to mitigate climate change and guaranteeing the future of the next generations.

Economic Analysis

We seek to strengthen and defend the basic principles of balance between the economy and the environment, favoring research, planning and management in public and private fields, linked to the relationship between ecological, social and economic systems, in order to improve social well-being.

Policies

We assist in the formulation of policies aimed at sustainability, as well as the implementation of practical actions, working in partnership with public sector bodies and other organizations.

Spatial intelligence

Through landscape modeling and monitoring, we identify the patterns and trends of social and ecological systems, supporting decision makers through quantitative statistics and mapped scenarios.

Wildlife populations face fast decline in Latin America

As part of the Living Planet Report 2022, also known as the Living Planet Report, IIS researcher and report co-author Bruna Pavani was interviewed by CGTN America for the article “Wildlife populations face rapid decline in Latin America”. CGTN America is the channel of the China Global Television Network (CGTN), the international division of the state-owned media organization China Central Television (CCTV), which manages comprehensive coverage in North and South America. This report has been produced by WWF in collaboration with the Zoological Society of London (ZSL) in order to summarize the critical current situation in nature. The connection between the biodiversity and climate crises, their socio-environmental impacts and the possibilities for a more sustainable future are central themes of the document. Learn more about the report at this link. The researcher emphasized the importance of promoting research that generates and monitors biodiversity and climate data, especially in Brazil. These data help to understand the changes in nature over time, highlighting the urgency to subsidize and carry out actions that can help revert the degrading condition of biodiversity and climate change simultaneously.
