The Pilot Program to Conserve the Brazilian Rain Forest is a partnership of the Brazilian Government, Brazil's civil society, the international community, and the World Bank.

The Program was setup in 1992 out of concern about the deforestation of Brazil's humid rain forests in the Amazon and on the Atlantic coast.

Its purpose is to demonstrate ways towards conservation and sustainable use of the natural resources of the rain forests.

The Program is funded by the G-7 group of countries, the European Union, the Netherlands and Brazil itself, with about US$340 million.

The World Bank assists Brazil in coordinating the Program and administers the multi-donor Rain Forest Trust Fund.
