• Project description
  The projet is part of a broader strategy of conservation and restoration of the Cerrado-Pantanal biodiversity corridor. The projects includes the recovery of degraded areas and promotion of gene flow among fauna and flora species, through the creation of biodiversity corridors connecting remaining Cerrado fragments in the area surrounding the Emas National Park, GO, and the Nascentes do Rio Taquari State Park, MS. The project includes the reforestation of 589 hectares using native Cerrado species, especially those strongly interrelated with the fauna and/or those with non-destructive economic uses (non-timber), such as fruits, seeds, fibers, oils, and honey.
