SAVE Brasil

ABOUT

SAVE Brasil (Society for the Conservation of Birds in Brazil) is a non-profit civil society organization with a special focus on the conservation of Brazilian birds. SAVE Brasil is part of the global alliance of BirdLife International, present in more than 100 countries. In Brazil, BirdLife International initiated a program in 2000 after identifying the need for immediate action in certain areas to avoid the extinction of critically endangered bird species. The BirdLife International Brazil Programme was then created, which later, in 2004, would be consolidated into the SAVE Brasil.

Our mission is to conserve birds and their habitats by connecting people to nature. Throughout its 17 years of existence, SAVE Brasil has achieved important results in the conservation of Brazilian birds: supporting the establishment of 9 protected areas (184,509 hectares) in places of high biodiversity and the identification and mapping of 237 IBAs (Important Birds and Biodiversity Areas) in Brazil. Today we are working in nine Brazilian states, with biodiversity conservation and biodiversity conservation and engagement programs.
