Conexsus?addresses the gaps that prevent?the development of a forest-based economy in Brazil by?connecting sustainable community enterprises?to technical assistance and capital. Conexsus has deployed $3 million in loans to?85?enterprises, benefitting 18,000?producers and increasing revenues by 38 percent. “What we are doing is creating an alternative economy, said Carina Pimenta, Executive Director of Conexsus. “One that is inclusive of the population that historically knows how to manage natural resources. Brazil is the epicenter of climate change and I think we are just in the beginning of this journey.”
