Fulbright Amazonia Week capped eighteen months of high-impact research, prompting the U.S. and Brazilian governments to announce a renewal of the Fulbright Amazonia Program for a second cycle.
Fulbright Amazonia scholars convened in Washington, D.C. to share their research and policy recommendations.
Sixteen scholars from the United States and throughout the Amazon region met to share research and develop policy briefs to contribute a sustainable and thriving Amazon Basin.
Fulbright Amazonia, an international, multi-disciplinary collaboration of scholars investigating topics related to the Amazon Basin, kicked off its inaugural program with a meeting in Belém, Brazil from June 18 to 22, 2023.
Scholars will investigate the Amazon region’s most pressing challenges to inform public policy.
