Proposal

Prioritise a tactical and operational programme in Public Security within the scope of the Interstate Consortium for Sustainable Development of the Legal Amazon.

Problem

The Amazon is currently one of the most violent regions in Brazil. In 2019, 4 of the 10 and 23 of the 100 most violent municipalities in the country were located in that region. Several types of combined crimes have led to a significant increase in violence in the region. Animal trafficking, money laundering, illegal possession of weapons and ammunition with access to heavy weaponry, deforestation, mining, and illegal logging are among the most frequent offenses in the Amazon.

Goals

This Resolution prioritises a work plan to implement the Tactical and Operational Programme for Interstate Articulation in Public Security in fiscal 2023. Such a programme should be conducted by the Interstate Consortium for Sustainable Development of the Legal Amazon. The programme is considered an initial step to intertwine public security policies, recover the notion of territory, and use that notion to reshape governance, in an interfederative and intrabranch line of reasoning. The plan should prioritise, among other things: (i) the integration of systems for greater public security; and (ii) the creation of the Interinstitutional School of Higher Studies on Amazon issues. The consortium vision is key to an articulated fight against crime in the region.
