Work must be addressed on different scales: we incentivize the appropiation of sustainable economic activities for single and community beneficiaries, such as the Kichwa, Cofán, Sápara, Shiwiar and Andwa peoples, and at a policy scale we work with national, regional, provincial, and municipal governments, all with the intention to contribute to a science and traditional knowledge-based decision-making.
Where we do it
The Sustainable Landscapes team works mainly in the Ecuadorian Amazon, within the Napo and Pastaza river basins, and focuses on freshwater landscape conservation. The team also works in theYasuní Biosphere Reserve, focused on terrestrial landscapes conservation, which includes over 3 million hectares and the active involvement of provincial and municipal governments.
