"Extractive violence against the land and violence against Indigenous women go hand and hand. We believe that healing women is also healing the earth."
– Nina Gualinga, Kichwa women defender and Women Defenders Program Coordinator at Amazon Watch

------

Indigenous women are pushing back at the systems threatening their rights and lives across the Amazon Basin.

As defenders of land, water, and life, Indigenous women are resisting Amazon destruction and building a pan-Amazon movement to protect the rainforest and our climate. They are keeping rainforests standing.

Today on Indigenous Peoples Day, you can be a part of this movement in solidarity with women defenders of the Amazon. Your donation today directly supports their safety, security, and wellbeing as they mobilize to defend the Amazon and ensure their futures.

Your gift today will fund the official launch of Amazon Watch’s Women Defenders Program!

Amazon Watch’s Women Defenders Program supports Indigenous women’s leadership and movement-building and elevates Indigenous women’s wisdom, solutions, and economic initiatives. Women Defenders will uplift a range of Indigenous-led projects including house and land for Mujeres Amazónicas, a collective of Indigenous women in the Ecuadorian Amazon. Spaces like this will offer healing, convening, connection, and trainings, as well as further regenerative agriculture, forest medicine, and a healthier present and future for Indigenous women.

Long-time Amazon Watch supporter Lynn Thorensen is contributing a generous seed grant of $50,000 to this initiative in honor of her beloved son, Dru who passed away at the age of 38. Dru was a committed climate activist, a champion for Indigenous rights and forest protection, and believed in the power of climate activists and leaders coming together to learn, connect, and heal.

Will you join us in uplifting women defenders’ leadership, safety, and healing with a gift today?
