In 2021, the Eletrobras companies published the first Notice of Social and Environmental Projects. The Notice received 180 applications and selected 10 projects located in municipalities where there are power plants, substations, transmission lines or administrative headquarters of the Eletrobras companies or are part of hydrographic basins where the companies' hydroelectric plants are installed and, at the same time, have areas of conservation and preservation of the biodiversity (ACBPs). The projects will contribute to the generation of socioeconomic value for communities, and, at the same time, to the preservation and recovery of biodiversity and water resources in the vicinity of generation and transmission projects, in addition to areas that contribute to the hydrographic basins where the companies are present.
\nOf the ten selected projects, two will be supported by Eletrobras Holding and will start in 2022.
\nAre they:
\n\u2022 The \u201cFormiga Verde: Community-Based Environmental Education Program\u201d, by the Permacultura Lab Institute, aims to unite environmental conservation and positive social impact in Morro da Formiga, Rio de Janeiro, through a Community-Based Environmental Education Program that seeks to train and raise awareness among children, young people and adults about local socio-environmental problems and possible ecological solutions. The project will transversally combine aspects of agroecology, permaculture, biodiversity conservation and maximization of ecosystem services through environmental education and reforestation actions articulated with the territory's teaching apparatus and environment, also contributing to the conservation of water resources.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Cooperbio's Alimergia Project will be carried out in Seberi\/RS, in the Atlantic Forest biome. The Project will seek to continue the actions radiated by the Territorial Center for Cooperation and Environmental Education, combining forest restoration of degraded areas with native species, increasing biodiversity and ecosystem services, promoting low-carbon agricultural, livestock and forestry practices. The project will prioritize family farmers with areas of up to 4 fiscal modules and who have the Declaration of suitability for Pronaf. Actions to recover degraded areas contribute directly to the maintenance and protection of local water resources.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":25120,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"ano":[66],"empresas":[54],"metas":[43],"class_list":["post-25289","projeto-hubaquasfera","type-projeto-hubaquasfera","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","ano-66","empresas-eletrobras","metas-incentivar-projetos-compartilhados-em-prol-da-agua"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
