Infraestrutura sustentável na Amazônia
Summary
The 'Sustainable Infrastructure in the Amazon' project, running from July 2019 to December 2020, aims to strengthen socio-environmental criteria in the decision-making process for infrastructure projects. It combines economic analysis via a market access tool with regulatory and governance analysis to identify the most effective stages of a project's life cycle for incorporating socio-environmental variables, specifically targeting the feasibility study phase to reduce impacts during implementation.
Key insights
- The project seeks to develop expert-validated proposals for altering current regulations and guidelines to enhance decision-making regarding socio-environmental and economic risks throughout the life cycle of infrastructure projects.
- The initiative employs two complementary lines of action: economic analysis using a market access tool developed by CPI, and analysis of regulation and governance.
- The project identifies the feasibility study stage as the ideal moment to anticipate social and environmental issues, as this phase is currently neglected in public debate.
- Brazil's infrastructure quality is cited as lagging behind much of the world, with the 2018 Global Competitiveness Report by the World Economic Forum scoring Brazil's transport infrastructure quality at 3.0 out of 7.0 points.
