Amazonia Community Building: Co-Designing Research for Impact

The Amazon rainforest, the world’s largest, is a vital resource for planetary biodiversity, climate stability, and the livelihoods of millions. Understanding and addressing its complex challenges—from environmental conservation to sustainable urban development—requires collaborative, interdisciplinary approaches. This event brings together researchers from MIT, Brazilian universities, research institutes, NGOs, and other organizations to present their ongoing co-designed research on the Amazon. Please join us for a compelling discussion of integrating local knowledge, scientific innovations, and policy insights for sustainable solutions for this vulnerable ecosystem.

Please RSVP here. Brunch will be provided. 

If you have any questions, please contact Mihaela Papa at mpapa@mit.edu.
