PROGRAMA Cidades Verdes Resilientes

Summary

Brazil faces the challenge of making its urban areas, where 87% of its population resides, more sustainable and resilient to climate change impacts like floods and water stress. The "Green Resilient Cities Program" (PCVR) is a national initiative launched in 2025 that integrates environmental, urban development, and science/technology policies to address this. It focuses on sustainable land use, green infrastructure, nature-based solutions, low-carbon technologies, sustainable mobility, and waste management, with specific targets set for 2035 to guide urban transformation.
