SUMMARY:

The Amazon has been the scene of several political clashes, especially in recent
years, due to the tension generated between those who want the forest to be cut
down and those who believe in its value while standing and providing all its
ecosystem services. In addition to what is already known about carbon
sequestration, balancing climate systems and being home to the greatest biodiversity
on the planet, the Amazon also provides raw materials to produce medicines on an
industrial scale, which has been defended by various national and international
organizations. This work aims to analyze the role of biodiversity medicines in the
sustainable development of the Amazon, taking into account an estimate of the
national and international market. This research aims to describe an organizational
structure, based on the concepts of local eco-productive arrangements, which is
necessary for the realization of local development in Brazilian biomes, especially the
Amazon, with a focus on phyto-products, plant pharmaceuticals, phytocosmetics,
herbal medicines, etc. A discussion on this type of development will also address
very topical issues such as technological and biodiverse sovereignty, eco-innovation,
benefit sharing, intellectual property, conservation, and regeneration of ecosystems in
the light of concepts such as socio-biodiversity. The results point to the importance of
sustainability, government support, collaboration, and innovation for the development
of the medicinal plant sector, indicating the application of these recommendations in
similar contexts to promote the responsible and effective use of these natural
resources, benefiting both local communities and the environment and promoting
regional development.
The results are expected to shed light on the paths to be taken from the local to the
regional dimension of development, with a focus on innovations based on
biodiversity.
