Campaign Connection: Protecting the Amazon and its People

Moderated by Atossa Soltani, Founder and Executive Director of Amazon Watch.
With Tupak Amaru Viteri Gualinga, community Vice President; Marlon Santi, former CONAIE President from Sarayaku; and Nina Sicha Siren Gualinga, Sarayaku youth leader; and representatives of Amazon Watch and Pachamama Alliance.
As the lungs of the planet and a critical climate regulator, the Amazonian rainforest and its peoples play a decisive role in the future of Earth. Hear more about the Sarayaku community’s precedent-setting legal victory for indigenous rights and the Amazon, new threats of oil development in their territory, and their call for partnerships in an international campaign to defend life and stop the new oil rounds in the Amazon.
