European Green Deal, 2030 Agenda, Forest-Based Industry, Caçador-SCAbstract
Contextualization: The European Green Deal, a set of environmental policies adopted by the European Union, projects effects that extend beyond its borders, directly affecting exporting countries such as Brazil. Municipalities whose economy depends on the forestry sector, such as Caçador (SC), face pressure to adapt their production to European environmental standards, especially in a context of global commitment to sustainable development aligned with the 2030 Agenda.
Objectives: This article aims to analyze how the policies of the European Green Deal impact the economic sectors of Caçador, with an emphasis on forestry exports. It seeks to identify how these sectors can adapt to European requirements and, simultaneously, take advantage of new opportunities for sustainable growth.
Methods: This research adopts a qualitative approach, based on document analysis and literature review. Economic reports, European environmental legislation, and case studies related to sustainable practices in related sectors were examined. The article is structured in two parts: the historical-political context of the European Green Deal and an analysis of the economic reality of Caçador, including possible adaptation strategies.
Results: The results indicate that the requirements of the European Green Deal represent significant challenges for Caçador's forestry exports, especially regarding compliance with strict environmental criteria. However, they also reveal opportunities for the municipality to align its production with international sustainability standards, strengthening its competitiveness in the European market and promoting more responsible economic practices.
