Liberal Amazon #29 - FUTURE - Tourism is an alternative to post-mining
Description
Located in the southeast of the state of Pará, Parauapebas is a municipality that emerged and expanded based on mining activity. Parauapebas is where Serra Norte dos Carajás is located – the largest mineralogical province in the world. However, given the estimate that mineral resources will run out in approximately 16 years, the municipality has sought to develop an alternative economic matrix, focusing on the tourist sector, as a way to continue developing and creating employment opportunities and income alternatives for the population. The idea is to invest in ecological tourism routes, with the implementation of spaces that can attract visitors interested both in exploring natural beauties and in adventure tourism.
