• Abstract:

  The Green Economy meets the demand of the state of Amazonas for an economic model based on the identification of new regional matrices complementary to the Manaus Free Trade Zone model, with the aim of economically internalizing the municipalities in the interior, based on regional development policies. To this end, we aim to identify potential regional economic matrices and present a direction for a "New Regional Development Policy" for the state of Amazonas. As for the methodological approach, this is a descriptive and exploratory qualitative study, based on data and information from primary sources (forms and questionnaires) and secondary sources (bibliography and documents), with the aim of meeting the objectives set out above. Thus, the Amazonian Green Economy must be implemented through policies to identify and strengthen the production chains of forest products linked to the Amazonian Bioeconomy.
