OUR HUMAN RIGHTS ADVOCACY MISSION
Upholding Dignity and Equality
ACG, in partnership with DAS Perú, is committed to upholding the human rights of indigenous communities in the Amazon. We work to secure land rights, provide access to healthcare, education, and sustainable livelihoods, ensuring their voices are heard and respected. We also support the implementation of “Life Plans”, a community-led development strategy that empowers communities to articulate their needs and priorities.
OUR CLIMATE PROTECTION MISSION
Safeguarding the Amazon
The Amazon Rainforest, often referred to as the ‘Lungs of the Earth’, plays a critical role in global climate regulation. We recognize the urgency of protecting this vital ecosystem. We support initiatives that curb deforestation, thereby reducing CO2 emissions, and assist communities in building resilience against climate change impacts. Our collective efforts can ensure the protection of the Amazon and our climate for future generations.
In 2021, Purús lost 343ha of tree cover, equivalent to 272kt of CO2 emissions.
