An environmental story

Started in 2000

Our mission is to contribute to the development of knowledge, values and responsible behaviors consistent with environmental conservation and sustainable development. Our emphasis is on education, communications, ecoefficiency, biodiversity conservation, and environmental law. 



Our vision is to position ourselves as a reference organization in the development of environmental conservation programs, leader in the planning and execution of education, communication and professional training in the environmental sciences.



In Vitalis, we promote projects that benefit the public and attend environmentally friendly solutions to problems linked to the unsustainable use of natural resources or to the lack of awareness of their importance to human populations, and to other living beings, in other aspects.



Our action areas:



Communication

We produce content for websites, social media, TV, radio, newspapers and magazines about current environmental affairs and useful information. In this matter, social responsibility and environmental citizenship are crucial to mobilize people to favour conservation.

Education, Citizenship and Social Responsability

We promote diverse initiatives at different levels, from basic school to universities. We also promote specialized professional training in different disciplines, on key and strategic matters related to environmental management.

Community Development

We empower people to develop environmentally friendly actions to raise values and behaviours through community participation. Stronger stakeholders will make better impacts on conservation.

Eco-efficiency, Clean Production and Sustainable Consumption

We promote eco-efficiency in various sectors, as an organizational practice that reduces negative environmental impacts, without compromising productivity.

Environmental Law and Policies

We promote the formulation and analysis of legal instruments: resolutions, laws, and regulations. We also educate people about their environmental rights and duties aiming at promoting law enforcement at different levels.

Environmental goods and services

We provide technical advisory on protected areas planning and management. We also support specific integrated environmental assessments and also look forward to strengthening ex situ conservation efforts at different levels.



We define ourselves as a non-profit, neutral and inclusive civil society organization, propositive in its actions, constructive in its criticism and positive in its assets, in favour of sustainable development.
