About this grant
The Getulio Vargas Foundation’s Center for Sustainability Studies is a higher education institution dedicated to promoting sustainable development in Brazil. With previous Mott Foundation support, the grantee worked with civil society organizations and academic institutions in the Amazon to establish the Independent Territorial Monitoring Network and has grown its reach and membership to 70 organizations. With renewed support, the Getulio Vargas Foundation will continue to strengthen the network and its ability to monitor investments by public and private financial institutions as well as facilitate Indigenous peoples’ participation into policy development.
