Description
Because of its biological diversity and because it is home to more than half of the country's indigenous tribes, the Amazon is a daily target for biopirates. Part of the reason for the existence of biopiracy in Brazil is the lack of adequate supervision and laws. Another contributing factor is the fact that the legislation allowing access to genetic heritage is considered difficult for scientists to comply with, which leads them to obtain part of this biodiversity illegally. As far as public policies are concerned, the situation is not very different and the country ends up being silent on problems that should already be being tackled.
