"We, as defenders of nature, of life, of the existence of humanity, we don’t count on legal support, since the Peruvian government and the companies are practically an enemy of the Indigenous movement, of Indigenous people, when we claim our right to life." – Olivia Bisa

------

This Friday is International Women's Day! On the front lines of the Amazon and in governments, organizations, and global climate talks, Indigenous women are leaders in protecting the rainforest and our climate.

Olivia Bisa is the first female president of the Chapra Nation in the heart of the Peruvian Amazon. She is standing up to the oil industry and advancing women’s rights, but just like for many Indigenous women, defending her people and their land comes at a dangerous cost. Olivia is receiving death threats against her and her family in an effort to silence her. Amazon Watch just mobilized solidarity funds to Olivia to prevent these threats from being carried out – and now we need your help.

Will you donate today to support Olivia’s security and defend Earth Defenders at risk?

SUPPORT INDIGENOUS WOMEN DEFENDERS TODAY: [link removed]

100% of your donation will be matched and goes directly to our program work.

Violence against the Earth and against women go hand in hand. We resist this violence by working in direct solidarity with women defenders of the Amazon, accompanying them not only in moments of risk but all along the way. Just as Olivia is not backing down to these efforts to silence her, we will not stop supporting the safety, well-being, and rights of Olivia and Indigenous women leaders throughout the Amazon. In the face of extractive violence and government inaction, it's our collective power that makes real change happen.

Join us in celebrating International Women’s Day by directly supporting Indigenous women defenders of the Amazon! Your solidarity defends Earth Defenders and safeguards the future of our planet. Thank you!
