Análise integrativa da literatura especializada dos acordos de cooperação na Amazônia

Abstract

This paper discusses international cooperation agreements in the Amazon from the perspective of scientific literature, with an emphasis on sociobiodiversity. The research employs the integrative review methodology to examine how International Development Cooperation (IDC) has been discussed by authors and its main characteristics. The Amazon, recognized for its biodiversity and importance to the global climate, faces significant challenges that require sustainable practices, which are often sought through international cooperation. However, the study reveals that this cooperation tends to be asymmetrical, predominantly benefiting the countries of the Global North. The conclusion is that, to be effective and equitable, international cooperation must respect and integrate the needs and priorities of local communities, promoting their autonomy and ensuring a fair distribution of benefits.
