À propos
Amazon Partnerships Foundation is a U.S. 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization based in Napo Province in the Ecuadorian Amazon, where indigenous Kichwa people are struggling with climate change, environmental destruction, and the loss of their culture, which for centuries has valued equilibrium between human activity and conservation of the rainforest.
Despite an entrenched culture of paternalism that has left many feeling helpless and reliant on outside aid, many communities want to combat climate change, stop environmental degradation, and find ways to strike a balance between their need to sustain their families and the global need to protect the Amazon.
