Women and girls, and especially Black and Indigenous women, are the group most exposed to the impacts of our changing climate. Amazonian Indigenous women are on the front lines protecting the rainforest and our climate, as they defend land, water, and culture. And here is what we know — when the barriers to women’s leadership are reduced, they transform entire communities.

Will you make a donation today to directly uplift Indigenous Women Defenders’ well-being and solutions? Your donation will be matched by generous supporters in honor of Indigenous women’s climate leadership.

IN SOLIDARITY WITH WOMEN DEFENDERS OF THE AMAZON!

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

"We women are the first to feel and observe climate-related impacts and changes in our daily lives because we have a special relationship with nature and territory. We are also the ones who save the seeds and pass on this and other knowledge to new generations."
– Edilena Krikati

When you make a donation in solidarity with Women Defenders, you address the disproportionate impacts of climate change that Indigenous women face, while being the least responsible for its causes. You acknowledge Indigenous women’s vital role as environmental and community leaders in the movement to address the worst of the climate crisis.

Your gift today, which will be doubled, is a powerful act of solidarity. Thank you for amplifying Amazonian Indigenous women’s safety, healing, and leadership in defending their territories!

Onward for the Amazon,


Leila Salazar-López
Executive Director
