BIAZA is working with the World Land Trust and its partner organisation REGUA to create a reserve in the Atlantic rainforest of Brazil – one of the world’s great biodiversity hotspots.

The Atlantic rainforests are among the most threatened in the world due to habitat destruction and fragmentation. Because of their high levels of biodiversity and species endemism it is vital that we save what is left and restore as much lost habitat as possible.
The proposed BIAZA Reserve of 1500 ha is situated between the REGUA reserve and the Rio de Janeiro Primatology Centre, only 80 km outside the bustling city of Rio de Janeiro.
BIAZA members and the WLT are working together to raise £260,000 over 3 years to purchase the land and create the reserve.
