Nature-based Solutions Brazil Alliance aims to promote and stimulate an agenda to combat deforestation and environmental degradation by strengthening nature-based solutions and the carbon credits’ market in Brazil. The organization currently unites 27 members, including project developers, non-governmental and integrity organizations and impact investors that together are responsible for more than 70% of the Brazilian nature based-solutions credits issued since 2022 (Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use).

The Alliance was founded in 2021 from the need of organizations of the carbon sector in Brazil for a technical authority that could work to promote integrity and best market practices in favor of the sector’s positive agenda.

“The carbon market is blooming in Brazil and our goal is to be a clear technical reference for the climate and natural solutions markets, promoting the integrity and quality of Brazilian projects in a global context,”— Janaína Dallan, president of NBS Brazil Alliance.

In addition to Best Practices and Market Integrity, the Alliance works in two additional strategic fronts: The first is Advocacy and Public Policies, where the Alliance’s members collaborate technically and strategically with federal and state governments for the development of the carbon market and the strengthening of nature-based solutions; and the second, Awareness, Engagement and Communication, where the Alliance shares important information with the public through articles, interviews in the press and events such as webinars, courses and conferences. These are the pillars that the Alliance’s members, with years of expertise in the market, see as priorities for strengthening the Nature-Based Solutions agenda in Brazil.’
