This site makes information on the Amazon region available to the public, with the aim of helping to make clear the structure of public and private agencies, both Brazilian and foreign, that are active in the region. At the disposal of researchers, investors, journalists, students, travelers and those who are just curious, the site is an attempt to orient the surfer to the various "worlds" that exist in the Amazon.
The site is an integral part of a project of analysis and monitoring of public policy in the Amazon executed by Friends of the Earth – Amazonia Program, with financial support from the Small Grants Program of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Holland, as well as a contribution from the Tropical Forests Foundation of Sweden (part of Friends of the Earth – Sweden) and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office – UK.
