Government of Brazil

The Government of Brazil is the federal authority responsible for administering the Federative Republic of Brazil, one of the world’s largest democracies and the biggest country in Latin America. It operates under a presidential system composed of executive, legislative and judicial branches. The federal government oversees national policy development in areas such as environment, climate change, energy, economic planning, health and social programmes. Brazil plays a central role in regional and global environmental governance due to its stewardship of the Amazon rainforest and its participation in multilateral climate processes, including hosting COP30 in Belém. The government engages actively in international negotiations, sustainable development agendas and biodiversity protection while balancing economic growth with climate commitments.
