13. NationalStrategy for ConsolidationandExtendingtheBrazilianProtectedAreas System 2012-2020 Goal Ensure the representativeness of Brazilian ecosystems, maintaining biodiversity and its ecosystem services, promote the direct and indirect use of natural resources from protected areas and insert the protected areas system on the political agenda of socioeconomic development desired by Brazil.

15. ConsolidatingBrazilian Protected Areas System Financial Strategy • Creation of project implementing schemes that will leverage more resources, lower transaction costs and provide direct results for the entire System – optimizing efforts and enhancing collaboration between Federal, State and Municipal governments.

16. LifeWeb – integrating mechanism (information, tools and results) of all parallel projects aiming at the implementation of the PA System – effectively structuring and consolidating the management of the System. Additionally, it will fill the gaps of actions that are not financed or supported by these other initiatives (greater flexibility on the use of allocated funds). • GEF Terrestre – US$ 36 million • Project associated with the LifeWeb initiative • Focus on expansion of PA on the Caatinga, Pampa and Pantanal Biomes; • Implementing and consolidating PA System • Fire Management; • Restoration of degraded landscapes (role of APA, landscapes with PA as a nucleus – enhancement of conservation effectiveness); • Implementing agency IADB; Joint management

17. LifeWeb – Initiative • Expression of interests: • 5 components + project management • US$ 115 million - donation • Bilateral agreement with German Government • Starter proposal submitted on the German/Brazilian bilateral negotiation roundtable • Approximately US$ 20 million allocated • Financial Gap – aprox. US$ 90 million
