Strengths of this project, as pointed out by the Technical-Administrative Coordination for the SGP Brazil are: participation in events; realization of a ?Social Boutique?, which capacitated the participants in commercialization; a basket of products was assembled; a strong link was demonstrated between environmental conservation and survival of the small farming activity; the region hopes to become a demonstrative model of feasibility for the alliance between conservation and sustainable production; participative certification of the products is under way; lessons learned include the fact that poverty requires not only objective and intellectual work, a more integral approach is necessary for human relations, especially gender; the coordination acquired administrative experience, never having received financing before. There were also several weak points, however, including the fact that the renewable energy activities planned were never realized. Other activities were also not fully developed. The greatest strength of the project was the environmental education, which is not the focus of SGP Brazil. Generation of income was achieved, nonetheless, from the commercialization of the organic production. A reforestation program was started as a result of the conscience-building activities. Traditional farming techniques were rescued to replace monoculturing.
