Project description
The Maísa REDD+ Project is a partnership between Biofílica, Fazenda Maísa and Sipasa-Moju to promote forest conservation and reduction of emissions from unplanned deforestation and forest degradation, through the valuation of the "standing forest" by integrating Sustainable Forest Stewardship activities and marketing environmental services. The Project is located in the State of Pará, Brazil, in the Lower Tocantins, and there are eight surrounding communities that are directly or indirectly affected by the project, either by being geographically downstream of the Project Area or providing manpower to Fazenda Maísa, with no communities residing within the Project Area or depending on its natural resources. Within a context of relevance for the Biodiversity, the Project Zone is in the midst of Belém's Center of Endemism, one of the eight Amazonian centers of endemism and the most degraded of all, with 76.4% of its forest cover compromised. A flora survey conducted identified a total of 128 tree species in the Project Area, and among these species, 8 are listed as endangered species at national and state level. As for fauna, a survey was conducted and at least 29 of the species identified are at some level and threat of extinction. Despite being in a context of major deforestation pressures and within a region of considerable historical degradation, the Maísa REDD+ Project has incredible potential to set up a regional model to be followed, demonstrating that sustainable practices and businesses implemented based on maintaining the "standing forest" can be economically feasible and still generate numerous benefits to the local biodiversity and socioeconomics.
