Mission

Our Mission is to promote social and environmental resilience in the Northwest Amazon through the strengthening of pertinent development and strategic governance, advocating effective policies and enhancing public engagement in the context of climate change.

What We Do

Since 1990, we have worked hand in hand with Indigenous communities of the Northwest Amazon region for the recognition and implementation of their rights, territories and local governance systems, as the most viable and dignified strategy for forest conservation.

We believe that the greatest capital humanity has is within its diversity of expressions, knowledge systems and cultural practices. We also believe that there is an extraordinary potential to find unexpected solutions and innovative strategies to our planet’s most pressing social and environmental challenges through a dialogue between cultures and knowledge systems, a potential that is now a necessity for the well being of all.
