Capítulo 30: La Nueva Bioeconomía en la Amazonía: Oportunidades y desafíos para bosques en pie y ríos cauda-losos sanos

Abstract

This chapter highlights the paradox between the Amazon’s extraordinary socio-biodiversity and its distance from the scientific, technological, and market frontier of the contemporary bioeconomy. It discusses the current socioeconomic structures available in the region, as well as challenges and pathways for a transition to a socially-fair and sustainable bioeconomy.
