PARTNERS

Founded in 1999, the LIGA Consultoria Técnica e Projetos is a company specializing in the provision of services related to the socio-environmental field, mainly in the Amazon region.

The Institute for Social and Environmental Strategic Intelligence from the Amazon (Insituto Piatam) is a nongovernmental nonprofit organization founded in 2007. The Institute had its origin in the Piatam Project, which is currently coordinated by the Federal University of Amazonas, and has existed since 2001. The Piatam Project is funded by the Financier of Studies and Projects - FINEP and brings together research from the National Institute for Amazonian Research (INPA) and the Piatam institute.

In 2011, the Foundation for the Support of Research of the State of Amazonas (FAPEAM), in partnership with FINEP, launched the Program for Support of Research in the form of Economic Subsidies to Micro and Small Enterprises in the North, Northeast and Midwest of Brazil (PAPPE Integration). After the proposal was approved, LIGA Consultoria Técnica e Projetos initiated a partnership with Instituto Piatam. Liga was responsible for developing the concept of Care & Save, and Piatam responsible for its implementation.
