AN AUDIENCE THAT GOES BEYOND CURIOSITY

In recent years, around 70% of channel accesses were made through TV devices.

MORE THAN AUDIENCE, RELEVANCE

Beyond reaching a large audience, we seek to give visibility to science, to celebrate Brazilian biodiversity, and to bring the public closer to the projects and professionals who work to know and protect it.

Throughout our journey, we have produced videos in partnership with major bird research and conservation projects in Brazil. Our work unites field experience, scientific knowledge, and audiovisual production — turning research, discoveries, and experiences with nature into content accessible to millions of people.

SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH IS ALSO PART OF OUR WORK

In 2024, we carried out a research and monitoring project on crested eagle nests, tracking aspects of the species' reproductive biology. In addition to the research, the project gave rise to an audiovisual production — turning part of that knowledge into a documentary that brings the audience into the field experience.
