Across the Amazon, forests are under acute pressure from extractive industries, land conversion, and uncontrolled fires, while poaching and wildlife trafficking erode biodiversity and destabilise entire ecosystems. As these pressures intensify, water sources dry up, wildlife declines, traditional knowledge disappears, and forests lose their vital ability to regulate the climate.

 

At Aktion Amazonas, we work with Indigenous Peoples and frontline communities to confront the most immediate threats through targeted interventions that safeguard both people and nature.
