When my guest started to plant trees on his land, as part of a reforestation effort, the land dropped dramatically in value. In order to not only survive but thrive, the reserve transformed into a socio-environmental project which welcomes guests from around the world through tourism.
My guest is the incredible Renato Machado, founder and visionary of Ibiti project in Brazil. A blueprint for ecotourism, a conservation project with rural regeneration and reforestation at its heart.
What you'll learn in this episode:
- How Ibiti has become one of Brazil's leading rewilding success projects
- Renato's conservation efforts to bring back the endangered spider monkeys
- Why the initial vision of creating a greenbelt around Ibitipoca Park didn't work
- Why two Muriquis monkeys hugged for a total of 2 hours and 15 minutes
Find out more about the Ibiti project here.
