Endangered
Rainforest
Rescue
A women and Indigenous-led nonprofit working to restore and protect the ecological corridor of the Americas - The Darién Gap of Panamá.
We are losing biodiversity at a rapid rate due to deforestation
Over 50% of Panamá’s primary forest has already been lost. The Darién Gap is a main source of the country’s biodiversity with a plethora of endemic and endangered species. Its preservation is vital.
Collective Action Now
The only way to combat the climate crisis is through the unification of indigenous peoples and the resources of wealthy nations. We must focus the planet’s protection less on the hope of technology in the future but rather on the hands of the guardians on the ground.
Native tree species are the backbone of the entire rainforests ecosystem
The Earth Is Suffering
The world’s rainforests store 25% of our global carbon dioxide emissions. They also account for more than 1°C of cooling; making them integral to keeping our planet below 1.5°C warming by 2030.
Stop Exploitation
The exploitation of these rainforests for economic gain is causing us to lose vital areas that cool our Earth. Now, more than ever, we must safeguard these spaces from further destruction.
Our Solutions are Nature-Based
Endangered Tree Species
Habitat restoration begins with endangered tree species. We believe that putting these species at the base of our restoration work is integral true biodiversity.
Primary Forest Preservation
Connecting new forest with primary forests solidifies pathways for animals and plant species to return. Without protecting intact primary forest maintaining biodiversity is impossible.
The indigenous peoples are the stewards of the forest, without land rights the forest cannot be protected. Their guardianship and involvement in our project is at the forefront of everything we do.
Indigenous Rights
Land Conservation
Conserving land to protect and monitor in perpetuity is the ultimate goal. The creation of Indigenous ownership of parks and conservancies free from economic exploitation is necessary for our survival.
