A wise world grounded in biodiversity, culture, and spirituality. A world that ensures sustainability and planetary balance.
Biodiversity is essential for maintaining healthy ecosystems that sustain life on Earth.
The preservation of diverse cultures enriches humanity by fostering tolerance, respect, and mutual understanding. In this context, spirituality can also nurture a deeper connection with nature and strengthen a shared sense of responsibility toward future generations.
Promoting a world guided by these principles is therefore crucial to securing a prosperous and harmonious future for all living beings.
We work to influence decision-makers through our convening power, our experience in protecting flora and fauna, our commitment to dialogue, and our efforts to strengthen policies that transform biodiversity governance practices.
Our strategic goals are:
Connect
With traditional communities and global activists to foster meaningful dialogue on biodiversity governance and the harmonious coexistence between forest ecosystems and humanity.
Our institution seeks to strengthen the competitiveness and sustainability of the Amazon
through planned and harmonious actions that recognize the region’s economic potential and environmental resources. We advocate for sustainable and economically viable production models while promoting social, cultural, and human development through project management initiatives focused on safety, quality, and social responsibility.
Between 2000 and 2024, the Nova Era community, in collaboration with the local residents’ association, implemented significant community and public policy initiatives that generated important social, environmental, and land-related achievements.
Under the leadership of Mr. Davi Nunes de Paula, these actions gained political recognition and the admiration of local society, establishing strategic partnerships with federal, state, and municipal government institutions, as well as Indigenous communities across the region.
Building upon these accomplishments, the initiative emerged to establish the Amazon Socio-Environmental Development Institute (IDAAM), with the purpose of expanding socio-environmental programs, income-generation projects, and food security initiatives.
The Institute operates under principles of community-based development, aligned with environmental legislation, aiming to conserve the Amazon, promote sustainability, and reduce social inequalities. Currently, its main focus is the Ayahuasca Daime Eterno Cultural and Environmental Development Project in the Juruá Valley, dedicated to ensuring the sustainable use of Ayahuasca and raising environmental awareness through the planting of 100,000 vine seedlings by 2030, supported through financial contributions and donations.
"Reflorestation is far more than planting, it is restoring harmony with nature"
- Davi Nunes de Paula
