This International Human Rights Day, we call on the world to fight for Indigenous rights and self-determination. Our ability to protect the Amazon and our climate depend on it.

Over the past tragic year, Bolsonaro's government in Brazil has continued to embolden land grabbers to burn and destroy the rainforest. Evidence points to the greatest loss of trees in the Brazilian Amazon since 2008, and this destruction causes Indigenous rights violations, threats against environmental activists, and land conflicts.

As the burning season began, Amazon Watch sought to respond in solidarity with Indigenous Earth defenders. We called for an #AmazonCeaseFire and led a direct relief campaign alongside a coalition of Brazilian and global allies. We exposed the true drivers of today's crisis – from political delinquency to market complicity – and then targeted those responsible.

Against this backdrop of environmental destruction, international solidarity to support the Amazon's Indigenous movement is growing stronger. By following the lead of our Indigenous partners, we’ve built a platform of solidarity ready to name and shame those responsible.
