Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi

A pioneering center for scientific studies of the natural and sociocultural systems of the Amazon, as well as for the dissemination of knowledge and the organization and maintenance of world-class collections related to the region. It investigates the Amazon Rainforest by bringing together data from the humanities, biological sciences, social sciences, and earth sciences. It is one of the oldest, largest, and most popular museums in Brazil, and encourages the appreciation, appropriation, and use of scientific knowledge.

A research institution founded in 1866 in the city of Belém (PA), where it maintains its research campus and the country's first zoobotanical park, the Goeldi Museum also has a scientific station located in the Caxiuanã National Forest, in Marajó (PA), which functions as an advanced laboratory on the functioning of tropical forests.
