Description
Created in 2004 with support from the Avina Foundation, O Eco intends to fill a void in Brazilian press coverage by reporting environmental news, training and educating young journalists for this work, and distributing its material as a news agency. It will cover any subject, but always from the perspective of conservation. It is especially interested in people who speak for the animals, plants and other creatures who do not have a voice in politics and media. O Eco is looking for support for its expansion projects, including an English language edition as well as a bureau in the Amazon.
