Work areas

Gaia Amazonas supports the sustainable management of this singular biocultural diverse region by facilitating and enabling effective and efficient environmental governance systems and setting adequate legal frameworks in place. Our goal by 2020 is to consolidate the conservation and governance strategies over eight million hectares of tropical Rainforest in Colombia. This constitutes the first concrete strategy for the establishment of an environmental governance framework in the entire Amazon Basin which articulates indigenous local governments with State and private actors in the region.
