Estimated annual ERRs 425,835

Estimated benefits over the project lifetime: As benefits for climate, the maintenance of forest cover results in exceptional benefits for adaptation to the impacts caused by climate change, such as changes in rainfall regime, as the area presents a dense hydrographic network that contributes to the provision and quality of water in the Amazon River basin. As quantifiable benefits for Communities, the project will implement groundwater collection and distribution systems, installation of solar panels for electricity generation and provision of satellite internet service in low-income’s extractive communities residences. The maintenance of forest cover ensures the conservation of biodiversity, the maintenance of ecosystem functioning (e.g., nutrient cycling) and of ecosystem services provisioning (e.g., carbon sequestration) performed by living organisms. It is noteworthy that the project includes a high priority area for biodiversity conservation, in compliance with the vulnerability criteria of the CCB Gold Level, as it presents species classified as Critically Endangered (CR) and Endangered (EN) according to the IUCN.
