I am Domingos Peas, Achuar Indigenous leader from the Ecuadorian Amazon.

Right now, I amin Dubai at the UN climate talks, fighting with my Indigenous brothers and sisters to protect the forest from destruction as it teeters on the edge of climate collapse.

Indigenous voices are essential to global climate decisions– but too often they are ignoredwhile governments and media rush to respond to rich countries and oil barons.

And you can help us to end that NOW.Join the rapid-response channel below to help build Indigenous power at the COP28 climate summit, and let’s make sure that our call to protect the Amazon echoes around the world.

With Avaaz,

we’ll be sending updates from Indigenous leaders on the ground, and urgent requests for action to pressure leaders to support Indigenous priorities -- like protecting the forest, enshrining Indigenous land rights, and ending drilling and mining in the Amazon.

Join now, and together we can remind world leaders:without the Amazon and its peoples, we lose the fight against climate change.

With hope, determination and a deep belief in justice,
Domingos Peas, Achuar leader - with Avaaz
