Women like Adriana are leading efforts to protect their territories in the Colombian Amazon. They travel by boat to collect data on activity, helping their communities document threats and conserve the forest for future generations. In Manacaro, this work is led almost entirely by Indigenous women!

Sajino, majaz, açaí, copoazu, river fish—in the markets of the Amazon, products, languages, and trade routes coexist without borders. Here, trade is also a form of resistance: communities have decided to sell, with their own hands, what the land provides them. Watch now! 🎥@brightsebastian

In the Santa María community in Bolivia, when the body grows weak, there is a remedy that comes from the forest: açaí milk. It’s a fruit that families know well and that, for generations, has restored the vigor, energy, and blood the body needs. Watch now! 🎥@brightsebastian

In Toka, a community of the Macushi people in Guyana, dairy farming is inconceivable without an understanding of the land. Knowing what grows, how the animals behave, and what to do when they get sick: this accumulated knowledge makes it unnecessary to seek help from outside. 🎥@brightsebastian

Leticia is a crossroads where Colombia, Brazil, and Peru meet—and its market square reflects that. There, among stalls selling fish caught in nearby rivers, you can hear voices that evoke a time of abundance that is no longer the same. Watch now! 🎥@brightsebastian

Where forest meets the sea. 🌿🌊 Nestled along Panama's Darién coast, our field station is surrounded by nature. In front of the station, you'll find our sea turtle nursery, where vulnerable hatchlings are protected during their earliest days before making their journey to the sea.

Watch 24 years of forest change unfold. Since 2001, nearly 900,000 hectares of forest have been lost in and around the Xingu Indigenous Territory due to agricultural expansion and forest fires. This timelapse is a reminder of what's at stake, and why Indigenous-led conservation matters.
