OUR VISION
A Wise World: Flourishing in Biodiversity, Enriched by Education, Guided by Spirituality and Self-Discovery.
We envision a world where the richness of biodiversity thrives, cultural diversity is celebrated, and indigenous wisdom fosters deep connections with nature. Our commitment is to create a harmonious balance that sustains and nurtures life across all ecosystems, ensuring a healthy planet for current and future generations.
"We work to influence decision-makers through our convening power, our experience in preserving flora and fauna, building dialogue and improving policies to change biodiversity governance practices."
IEAFV's strategic objectives include:

Our institution seeks to expand the competitiveness and sustainability factors of the Amazon in a planned and harmonious manner, considering the potential of its economy and environmental resources, defending sustainable and economically viable means of production, in addition to promoting social, cultural and human development through actions and project management, with a focus on safety, quality and social responsibility. Between 2000 and 2024, the Nova Era community, in collaboration with the local residents' association, promoted significant community and political initiatives that resulted in relevant achievements in the social, environmental and land areas. Under the leadership of Mr. Davi Nunes de Paula, these actions gained political recognition and admiration from local society, establishing crucial partnerships with federal, state and municipal political bodies and indigenous communities in the region. Based on the results achieved, the initiative to found the Floresta Viva Environmental Education Institute arose, with the aim of expanding socio-environmental activities, income generation projects and food security. The Institute follows principles of community development, in compliance with environmental laws, aiming to conserve the Amazon, promote sustainability and reduce inequalities. Currently, the focus is on the Ayahuasca Daime Eterno Cultural and Environmental Development Project in the Juruá Valley, with the aim of ensuring the sustainable use of Ayahuasca and raising awareness about the preservation of nature through the planting of 100,000 vine seedlings by 2025, with financial support through donations.
