Our supporters, includingPousada Paraíso Azul,Plastic House,Junior Brigade,Opaoma It isMarulhoEco, played a fundamental role in the realization of this event. During the forum, several critical challenges that affect Ilha Grande were highlighted, such as the problem of garbage, the need for better quality of education for children in the communities, the lack of public transport between the beaches, basic sanitation issues, tourism predatory environment and the threats posed by zoonoses and invasive species in this ecosystem.

But we don't just stop with concerns.O "First Forum We Are Ilha Grande" It was also a space of hope and action, where concrete solutions in the short and medium term were outlined. Among them, we highlight the creation of collection points for recycled waste on the beaches of Bananal, Matariz, Freguesia and Saco do Céu, the promotion of solidarity and community transport, the promotion of community-based tourism, the formation of working groups aimed at education and beach cleaning efforts.

Our journey to a more sustainable future for Ilha Grande is just beginning, but we are full of determination and optimism.

Join us in this cause and follow our next steps towards preserving this natural paradise that we all love. Together, we can make a difference and ensure that Ilha Grande reaches a balance between human beings and nature.
