Manifesto of Innovation Week 2025

A Manifesto for a Brazil where climate justice prevails and prosperity flourishes for all.

We are at a decisive moment in history. Global warming has caused severe droughts and devastating wildfires in South America, while the air in Brazilian cities becomes increasingly unbreathable. Climate change is no longer a distant threat: it is already impacting our daily lives, affecting ecosystems, cities, rural areas, economies, and lives.

In this 21st century, we are witnessing the accelerating development of new knowledge and technologies. But we also carry within the roots of our communities, traditional knowledge that teaches us how to live in harmony with the environment. The path to a prosperous future lies in the union of innovation and ancestry; in overcoming an exclusionary development model, based on the exploitation of people and the environment.

We, public servants, are strategic in leading this transformation. We are agents of change, capable of creating the cities, rural areas, and communities of the future, guiding actions that promote both the adaptation and mitigation of climate change. Every policy, every project, every public service is an opportunity to transform climate challenges into innovation and economic, social, and human development.

This journey is not easy, but it is possible. And it is already underway. Innovations implemented around the world prove that we can reimagine our cities and rural areas, as well as our relationship with the environment. Every small step we take today has the power to build a fairer, greener, and more abundant tomorrow.

Therefore, in this Innovation Week 2025, we invite you to think big and dream high. Let us be inspired not only by what is urgent but by what is lasting. Let us move with determination, knowing that everything we build together has the potential to change the world and create a cycle of prosperity for future generations.

The future starts now. And it will be the result of the choices we make today.
