Conteúdo:	Amapá is a sui generis state located in Eastern Brazilian Amazon, with low historical deforestation rate and where 73% of its territory is under protected areas. It is the only one women wages are, on average, higher than men in the public sector. Also it is the only Brazilian Amazon state that has an Institute of Forests (IEF) with a function of forestry extension, protected areas management, forest concessions and environmental services. From 2011 to 2014, for the first time a female forest engineer headed the IEF. During this period, the state government had less than 20% of executive positions held by women. Challenges at the IEF ranged from the scarcity of budget resources to high demand in a region where forests occupy 80% of the territory. Remarkable outcomes were achieved such as the State Register of Public Forests, the 1st State Forest Program, and the 1st Forest Concession bidding notice. The launch of the Pro-extrativism programme, which assisted more than 1,500 families of agroextractivists, quilombolas, indigenous and riverine communities; and the weekly radio program ?Vozes da Floresta?, a forum for the dissemination of information on market, forestry policies and projects. A major difficulty came up in the relationship with timber companies, run by men with patriarchal culture and retrograde practices. Confronting conflicts related to corruption associated with the public land tenure, and a tense relationship with the Legislative Assembly, whose the majority of representatives, advocate interests unrelated to the traditional communities and the protection of the environment.
