SAVE Brasil is a nonprofit organization focused on bird conservation and their habitats. Headquartered in Sao Paulo, at Rua Fernao Dias, 219, Pinheiros, SAVE Brasil represents BirdLife International in the country, a global alliance of more than 120 organizations dedicated to nature conservation.
In addition to its national work, SAVE Brasil is also a member of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), responsible for assessing species' conservation status and publishing the Red List of threatened species.
SAVE Brasil operates in critical conservation areas, such as a 428-hectare reserve in the Atlantic Forest of Pernambuco, which harbors almost 300 bird species, including 13 globally threatened with extinction. In northern Minas Gerais, the organization acquired and maintains a 593-hectare private reserve in the Cerrado, one of Brazil's most endangered ecosystems. This area is vital for the preservation of the Blue-eyed Ground-dove (Columbina cyanopis), one of the rarest birds on the planet, rediscovered in 2015 after 75 years without sightings.
Through initiatives like these, SAVE Brasil reinforces its commitment to conserving Brazil's biodiversity, working to protect birds and the essential habitats that ensure their survival.
