In the heart of the Peruvian Amazon, Olivia Bisa stands as a beacon of courage and resilience.

The first female president of the Chapra Nation, her tireless efforts to address the devastating oil spills that ravaged her ancestral territory in 2021 have made her a target of threats and attacks. Since then, Olivia has faced mounting pressure to cease her work, with ominous death threats and intimidating messages.

Despite these dangers, Olivia remains unwavering in her commitment to defend her people and their land. She has emerged as a powerful Indigenous voice, leading the charge against the expansion of oil operations in the Peruvian Amazon. Organizing patrols and monitoring systems for the Chapra Nation, Olivia works relentlessly to prevent the incursion of illegal loggers into their sacred territories.
