Amazônia Vox, an initiative by the Bem da Amazônia Institute, was selected to join the “Accelerating Digital Business” program, carried out by Meta in partnership with the International Center for Journalists (ICFJ) and various media associations in the country. In total, 160 projects were selected, nine of which were from the Amazon.
The program consists of two phases. The first offered training with experts from various areas to strengthen the organization's relationship with its digital audience, develop new projects and products, generate revenue, and build innovative and sustainable business models. In the second, participants signed up to receive specialized mentoring and financial support to execute the projects.
The project registered by Amazônia Vox is the launch of the Amazon Knowledge Sources Bank platform and content production with independent, non-profit journalism, with a view to the Amazon from the perspective of Solutions Journalism.
