Manual Fundo de Áreas Protegidas
Um importante elemento inovador do Arpa na sua primeira fase (2003-2010) foi a constituição do Fundo de Áreas Protegidas (FAP). Trata-se de um fundo fiduciário do tipo endownment fund (fundo de doação) que investe apenas os rendimentos reais do capital depositado. O FAP é revestido de caráter de política pública e interesse público, motivo pelo qual encontra no Ministério do Meio Ambiente seu órgão instituidor. O Fundo Brasileiro para a Biodiversidade (Funbio), executor financeiro do Arpa, realizará a gestão do FAP.
Este Manual Operacional do Fundo de Áreas Protegidas foi concebido no intuito de orientar e apresentar as diretrizes para o uso dos recursos do FAP, sendo uma ferramenta de trabalho de fácil acesso para todos os envolvidos na sua implementação e operação cotidiana.
Os procedimentos descritos neste manual refletem os acordos de doação realizados na primeira e na segunda fase do Arpa, que viabilizaram a criação e a implementação do FAP e o Acordo de Cooperação assinado entre o Ministério do Meio Ambiente e o Funbio para execução do Programa.
O Manual Operacional do FAP está organizado em seis capítulos. O primeiro discorre sobre o Arpa, seus objetivos e suas metas. O segundo capítulo abrange os objetivos do FAP, apresenta sua governança e como será estabelecido o gerenciamento do Fundo. O terceiro descreve a composição de recursos do FAP. A abordagem sobre a operacionalização do Fundo, no que diz respeito ao planejamento das UCs, encontra-se no quarto capítulo. O quinto relata a prestação de contas e a auditoria físico-financeira. No sexto é demonstrado o mecanismo de salvaguardas do FAP. Por fim, são apresentados os anexos deste Manual.

Indigenous Peoples Policy | Política para Povos Indígenas
With 236 distinct Indigenous peoples, located on 565 different Indigenous Lands, and speaking over 180 languages,i Brazil is one of the most culturally diverse nations in the world. Indigenous Lands encompass over 12% of the total area of Brazil, which operate under a special regime of protection, and Indigenous peoples are important managers of this rich natural heritage. Although FUNBIO does not have as part of its direct mandate working with Indigenous Peoples, it has prior experience with several projects that involve Indigenous Peoples and anticipates that future projects may incorporate such involvement.
