Amazon Rainforest, Brazil - The Nature Conservancy
The Amazonian has the biggest biological, natural and hydrological resources and diversity of the world. It is the center of global interests, which put it in a danger for the dispute of the territories. In this region inhabit a great number of indigenous communities who have survival for centuries in a permanent struggle with the western civilization, trying to keep their cultures, the customs, languages, territories, myths and identities. We will focus in the Colombian, Peruvian and Brazilian Amazonian.
