The Sustainability Network (Portuguese: Rede Sustentabilidade) (REDE) is a Brazilian political party[1][5] founded in 2013 by Marina Silva, Brazilian politician from Acre.[6]

The party formed a strategic alliance with the Brazilian Socialist Party for the 2014 Brazilian general election, until its registration as an independent political party was approved in 2015.[7]

The Sustainability Network has 19,090 members as of January 2017.[8]

For the Brazilian general election of 2018 REDE has formed with the Green Party the coalition United to transform Brazil, in support of Marina Silva.[9]
