Smart Forests observes reveals conserves
Smart Forests
The “Smart Forests” program seeks to integrate science, technology and community engagement to better understand the health of the Atlantic Forest and to support conservation practices. We use monitoring tools such as camera traps, sound recordings and environmental parameters to track forest cover, wildlife presence, and water and soil quality. Our goal is to build a robust database that serves as a foundation for ecosystem restoration and for improving rural livelihoods, promoting a harmonious coexistence between people and nature.

Current challenges
Despite advances in the reforestation of the Atlantic Forest, we still face significant challenges. The fragmentation of forest areas makes long-term monitoring difficult, and the lack of reference standards affects our ability to assess the health of the restored forests. In addition, the absence of real-time data and limited access to information compromise the effectiveness of conservation strategies and the global sharing of solutions.
