📋 Tender Overview
The Ministry of Environment and Climate Change (MMA) expresses deep regret for the death of the renowned Brazilian archaeologist Niede Guidon (1933-2025), which took place on Wednesday (4/6).
Niede Guidon was a pioneer and essential in the preservation of Brazilian historical, cultural, environmental and archaeological heritage. His tireless dedication resulted in the creation and consolidation of the Serra da Capivara National Park in Piaui, recognized as a cultural heritage of humanity by UNESCO since 1991.

Its integrated approach remains an inspiration for public policies and initiatives in defense of the environment and inclusive socioeconomic development.
At this moment of great sadness, the MMA sympathizes with the family, friends, colleagues and admirers of Niede Guidon, reaffirming the commitment to honor and continue to his work and the values it has defended throughout life.
