Philanthropy for a New Bio-Economy in the Amazon: Fundo Vale
Marcia Soares: As one of Brazil’s largest mining companies, Vale also sponsors one of the Amazon’s largest grantmakers. By creating innovative financial mechanisms and strengthening businesses with positive social and environmental impacts, Fundo Vale, or the Vale Fund, is helping Brazil to become a global leader in bio-economics. Building on experience preserving and restoring the Amazon, the Fund was created 10 years ago. Marcia Soares joins us to tell the story.
