Resumo:
With the creation of IMoSEB as a model, the Ministry of the Environment and the Ministry of Science and Technology took the initiative of gathering representatives from academia to promote national discussions, with the purpose of strengthening the relationship among government, decision-makers, and the science sector, which are all responsible for producing information. This meeting had the purpose of creating a mechanism to obtain advice from the research sector for developing the Brazilian stand point related to policy decisions concerning biological diversity and, therefore, also to provide scientific advice to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). The directives established by this Convention and the decisions arising from each Conference of the Parties have become indispensable tools for the development of public policies by the Brazilian government.
