PCI's vision for Mato Grosso is to achieve social and economic development through sustainable land use

PCI Strategy

This vision materializes through a broad goal plan in its three axes (P, C and I), constructed through a participatory process that integrates the agendas of public, private and civil society actors.

The PCI Institute

The Produce, Conserve and Include Institute (or PCI Institute), was created in June 2023 and is a private, non-profit and non-profit association.
Produce, Conserve and Include

The biggest global effort
to mitigate climate change
ever devised
by a subnational state

In December 2015, during the Climate Convention in Paris (COP 21), the Government of Mato Grosso launched the Produce, Conserve and Include (PCI) Strategy.

The PCI was built to raise financial resources for the State of Mato Grosso to support the expansion and increase in the efficiency of agricultural and timber production, the conservation of native vegetation, and the restoration of environmental liabilities in line with the Brazilian Forest Code Law.

It also aims to foster family farming and traditional communities, while reducing GHG emissions and enabling carbon sequestration, by controlling deforestation and developing a low-carbon economy.
