Brazil's economic and social development depends on a safe environment with its resources fairly distributed. This presupposes the recognition of the nation’s ethno-racial diversity, distinct modes of living and territorialities. After four decades of initiatives aimed at consolidating environmental governance based on the paradigm of ecological modernization, a process that implied alliances between corporations, the State, and hegemonic NGOs, the country faced the rise of anti-environmental, anti-indigenous and anti-social policies in the last 5 years. This trend posed challenges for democracy, since deregulation and institutional dismantling produced concrete effects on the increase of deforestation as well as violence in the territories of indigenous peoples and traditional communities. This round-table seeks to analyze the rebuilding of democracy in Brazil following the defeat of the far-right wing government in the 2022's election.
