1st Panel: Environmental Governance: Brazil-U.S. Environmental Relations
The relationship between Brazil and the United States is crucial in addressing global environmental challenges. As two of the world’s largest economies and significant environmental stewards, their collaboration shapes the direction of international efforts to combat climate change, protect biodiversity, and promote sustainable development. This partnership involves aligning environmental policies, securing funding for conservation projects, and working together on global agreements. The outcomes of their cooperation have far-reaching implications, influencing not only their respective regions but also the global approach to environmental governance.
2nd Panel: Integrated Public Policies for Sustainable Development: Amazon
Integrated Public Policies for Sustainable Development in the Amazon are crucial for advancing global sustainability goals and have significant implications for the USA. By aligning efforts across conservation, agriculture, and infrastructure, these policies address the complex challenges of preserving the Amazon’s unique ecosystems while promoting economic development. For the USA, the Amazon is critically important due to its role as a major carbon sink that influences global climate patterns. Additionally, the Amazon’s biodiversity contributes to global ecological balance and provides resources that can have far-reaching implications for science, medicine, and technology.
