Results and Impacts

The LIRA presents its results

Our collaborative actions promote and enhance integrated management for the conservation of biodiversity, the maintenance of landscape and climate functions, and the socio-environmental and cultural development of traditional peoples and communities.

We believe that protected areas guarantee the future of the Amazon, through its natural assets and the ancestral wisdom of the forest peoples.

Young people, make your voice heard!

Let’s transform Amazonian territories together

Have you ever heard of Political Incidence or Advocacy? This is a practice of political action and defense of causes and rights, which seeks to influence the creation and development of effective public policies to minimize or solve social problems.

And how to find content and develop practical tools to act on socio-environmental political agendas? In the Formation of Young Leaders Transforming Amazonian Territories you will connect with other young people, learn about strategies and build knowledge to act within the different instances of Political Incidence in the themes of governance, biodiversity and management of territories.

What is the content and how will it happen? The course will address policies related to protected areas, biodiversity, forests and sustainability and the political potential of collaborative work and networks. In addition to bringing content to the field of legal-administrative language and to communication that goes beyond peers.
