OUR WORK IN 2020 I RESTORATION BENEFITS WOMEN IN THE AMAZON AND THE SEMI-ARID REGION WRI Brasil has supported rural communities, especially women, who restore landscapes in the Amazon region of Pará and the semi-arid region of Bahia. Travel restrictions imposed because of the pandemic led to an interruption of in-person activities, but we continued to monitor local beneficiaries and implement activities scheduled for 2020. In Bahia, we contributed to the cooperation agreement signed between the Regional Development and Action Company (CAR), Adapta Group, and Cooperativa Ser do Sertão, which will mobilize resources to recover degraded areas in the Pintadas municipality region. Twenty-five hectares of demonstration units with agroforestry systems will be implemented. In Juruti, Pará, the partnership with PretaTerra, the Federal University of Western Pará, and with local associations and unions made it possible to move forward with the project. An online collective was created and trained to streamline agroforestry technical assistance, the elaboration of projects, and fundraising to expand areas under restoration. 28 WRIBRASIL.ORG.BR Serrolândia/BA.
