Brazil is renowned for its rich biodiversity, making the preservation of its natural environment crucial, especially during significant construction projects. This commitment was highlighted 50 years ago with the establishment of the Ilha Wildlife Conservation Center amidst the construction of a hydroelectric power plant in Ilha Solteira.
In 2016, the Chinese state-owned company China Three Gorges took over the management of the facility, continuing to prioritize conservation efforts aimed at safeguarding the region's endangered and vulnerable species. Through collaborative initiatives, China and Brazil are ensuring that development projects coexist harmoniously with wildlife preservation.
