Mission

Major Activities

Activity 2

Brazil Low Emissions Strategy Program: Brazil has taken on the world's most ambitious target for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Approximately two thirds of these emissions reductions would be achieved through changes in land use, including an 80% reduction in deforestation in the Amazon region and a 40% reduction in deforestation in the Cerrado. The challenge for achieving this goal is the tremendous economic importance of Brazil agricultural sector, which could grow substantially over the near future, making the emissions reduction targets difficult to achieve. Through the "Brazil Low Emissions Strategy" program, IPAM IP provides integrated analyses of future agricultural scenarios and associated GHG emissions and presents these findings to agricultural sectors, government, and civil society.

Activity 3

Capacity Building and Outreach Program: For low-emission rural development to grow to scale, and become a new paradigm for rural development around the world, strong institutions will be necessary to support this transition. IPAM IP seeks to build capacity in developing nations in support of this transition through its outreach and capacity building program working with developing country civil society and government institutions to advance low-emission rural development in the tropics.
