The “Cultivating Sustainable Life” project, co-financed and implemented in partnership with CAT – Clube Amigos da Terra de Sorriso, includes technical assistance and consultancy actions, with activities aimed at strengthening responsible soy production, promoting the restoration of degraded areas and offer technical assistance to small family farmers. The project started in 2020 with a forecast of investments of 680 thousand euros until the end of 2021, being able to leverage up to 1.1 million euros in return for the private sector (CAT and producers).

&nbsp;

The project is structured around three main objectives:

<ul>
	<li>Promote the sustainable development of agricultural activity in the Sorriso region through RTRS certification;</li>
	<li>Restore degraded Permanent Preservation Areas (APPs) and reduce environmental liabilities;</li>
	<li>Support the organization of family farmers through associations, to implement production chains (honey, milk, chicken, fruits and vegetables), aiming at increasing production and revenue.</li>
</ul>
