OUR MISSION

At Mothers of the Amazon, our mission is to protect the Amazon Rainforest and the health of its indigenous communities for future generations.

Mothers in the Amazon are at the frontlines of the defense of the largest rainforest in the world, raising the next generation of forest guardians that will ensure the protection of the Amazon for future generations.

At Mothers of the Amazon, we recognize that the health of our planet and the future of our children relies intrinsically on the protection of the Amazon rainforest and those who defend it.

We work directly with indigenous leaders and institutions on community development, focusing on critical initiatives that improve indigenous health, protect and restore land, and preserve indigenous culture.
