1. Role in the Regenerative Amazon Platform

Prof. Dr. Tânia Cruz serves as the institutional coordinator for the Regenerative Amazon Platform, facilitating the project's submission to public funding calls (BNDES, Amazon Fund, Climate Fund) through the partnership with the University of Brasília (FUP/CDT/INCUB.TS).

Her involvement in the Platform articulates three complementary dimensions:

  • Institutional Anchor — UnB provides eligibility for the project to funding instruments that require the proponent to have a CNPJ from a research and teaching institution.
  • Technology Transfer — As coordinator of CEDES/NIT-CDT/UnB, she works on structuring intellectual property mechanisms and the transfer of Takwara technologies to Amazonian cooperatives.
  • Gender-Focused Governance — Her consolidated expertise in solidarity economy, female entrepreneurship, and social technology guides the Platform's community governance model, with a focus on cooperatives and women's organizations.

Academic Profile

Associate Professor IV at the UnB Planaltina Faculty (FUP), with all stricto sensu training completed at UnB itself:

  • Bachelor's in Sociology and Licentiate in Social Sciences (1998) — PET/CAPES Scholar (1995–1998)
  • Master's in Political and Labor Sociology (2001)
  • Doctorate in Labor Sociology (2006) — Thesis: "What is your work, woman? Women entrepreneurs in the context of Popular Solidarity Economy"
