Boa Esperança Project

Santa Luzia – Bahia

In southern Bahia, the CPR Verde Boa Esperança Project stands out as a strategic initiative for the conservation of the Atlantic Forest, the generation of carbon credits, and the economic valorisation of environmental services provided by private land areas.

Preservation of the Atlantic Forest

Developed in the municipality of Santa Luzia (BA), the project combines science, territorial management and green financial instruments to protect one of the most threatened biomes on the planet.

Valuing forest areas

The core objective of the Boa Esperança Project is to conserve, restore and enhance forest areas, ensuring that agricultural and livestock activities evolve towards an environmentally responsible model aligned with climate goals.
