Amazônia de Pé - Prospectus - EN

Amazônia de Pé is a Brazilian movement that advocates for the protection of the Amazon Rainforest – a er all, our territories are interconnected: what happens in the Amazon does not stay in the Amazon, and carrying out actions to protect the forest and its peoples must be a responsibility of the majority of Brazil’s population.

The Amazon Rainforest accounts for the rainfall patterns and impacts the entire continent’s climate. On the one hand, the intensi ed predatory exploitation of the forest in recent years worsens the climate crisis and a ects people nationwide – especially traditional peoples, the black population and marginalized communities; on the other hand, political and activist movements for the protection of the largest tropical forest in the world help to preserve its biodiversity, populations, cultures and ancestry, and look a er the climate in the entire planet.

There is only one way to ensure that the forest keeps standing and has a possible future: to strengthen the social struggles for its protection which have taken place in Amazonian grounds for centuries. This entails fostering a national mass mobilization in defense of the Amazon Rainforest and its peoples.

In the next pages, we will dive into the universe of Amazônia de Pé, and we invite you to join us!

JOIN THE MOVEMENT

THE CONTEXT AND THE ISSUE

The Amazon Rainforest is essential for ghting against climate change. In addition to storing 49 billion tons of carbon in its structure1, the world’s largest tropical forest releases 20 trillion liters of water into the atmosphere2 on a daily basis. These gures underscore its profound in uence on climate cycles, whether on a local or global scale. However, its importance cannot be boiled down to numbers.

When we talk about the Amazon Rainforest, we are also talking about its guardians – people and cultures – who manage to keep it standing every day. Indigenous communities, quilombolas and traditional peoples living in the region have been resisting deforestation for centuries, and have learned to take care and live amongst the Amazon biodiversity without destroying it. Their way of existing is deeply rooted in the environment where they live. They ght to preserve the forest on a daily basis because they understand themselves as part of it.

The vast majority of the Amazon’s territory lies within Brazilian borders, which, in its turn, holds an absolutely strategic spot in the struggle against the global climate crisis.

However, the environmental protection policies, whether concerning the forest itself or the people living in it, have been facing ongoing attacks in the country. During the last presidential term, Brazil witnessed record-breaking levels of deforestation, wild res, illegal logging and soil contamination.

In this context, the Amazon’s public forests were the most impacted ones by the destruction. Today, the undesignated public forests in the region total 57 million hectares (an area larger than Spain), and have suffered with deforestation rates of 51% in recent years3. They are public lands owned by the state or federal governments, and which have not yet been assigned the official designation or purpose necessary to be consolidated as a conservation area, indigenous land or extractive reserve. On the other hand, indigenous lands in Brazil are the most protected territories within the forest: in the last 36 years, only 1.6% of deforestation in Brazil occurred on indigenous lands4. Thus,

the designation of public lands is one of the main solutions to fight against deforestation in the Amazon Rainforest, and to ensure the protection of its biome and territory.

The recent election of President Lula, who took o ce for the third time in 2023, introduced a new cycle in the country. In the rst months of his term, he created the rst Ministry of Indigenous Peoples in the history of Brazil, and chose an important Amazonian and environmentalist leader, Marina Silva, to head the Ministry of Environment, sending out a signal to the socio-environmental eld that resulted directly in conservation policies. When we compare deforestation rates in the Legal Amazon between August 2022 and July 2023, we may notice a 22.3% decrease in its total gures5. However, Lula was elected with the support of a broad front, welcoming into his ministries perspectives that did not always align in regard to environmental protection.

Additionally, the longstanding in uence of the rural caucus within Brazil’s political ecosystem has grown and strengthened to the point of becoming one of the main active forces in the National Congress, accounting for 44.4% of the seats and exing the greatest political muscle in the institution. These congressmen are mostly wealthy landholders who defend the expansion of agricultural exploitation in the Amazon region as a stepping stone to the nancial growth of their businesses. Furthermore, if we stick to a regional scale, it is a well-known fact that local governments lack commitment to forest and community protection, for the same reasons as the aforementioned ruralists.

In such a divided context, it becomes crucial to build a mobilization structure that could embrace the entire Brazilian population in defense of the Amazon Rainforest and its peoples. The current generation has a historic chance to stop destruction and implement e ective policies to protect the forest, its peoples, and the future of us all. The next three years will represent a challenge and a huge opportunity to increase collective mobilization and pressure the state and the federal governments to adopt policies capable of actually protecting the environment.

In addition, we understand that the planet cannot a ord the risk of having Brazilian climate policy shi in such volatile ways to accommodate the speci c interests of those in power. The commitment to a permanent national policy for environmental conservation is a collective endeavor, which can only be achieved with the expressive support of Brazilian society. Preserving the Amazon Rainforest and its peoples is preserving the future of the planet, a er all.

THE ORGANIZATION

Amazônia de Pé began as a campaign within NOSSAS, a Brazilian non-pro t organization, winner of the 2022 Skoll Award for Social Innovation. However, it has grown to become an unprecedented coalition e ort encompassing over 300 organizations, including some of the country’s largest indigenous groups, the most prestigious technical experts and think tanks working on the conservation of the Amazon Rainforest, as well as youth groups and cultural organizations. Now, Amazônia de Pé is spinning o NOSSAS into an independent organization, ensuring that elements derived from this coalition can be represented at their governance level.

Since 2022, Amazônia de Pé has initiated the construction of a civic infrastructure in defense of the Amazon Rainforest. It is the sole activist movement at a national level in defense of the forest and those who protect it.

THEORY OF CHANGE

OUR GUIDELINES

• We understand that the protection of the Amazon Rainforest has a critical role in climate regulation on a global scale. Climate change is impacting people’s lives, the nature and infrastructure around the world. Extreme weather events are increasingly evident and threatening to our future, with a particular impact on the most vulnerable populations. Keeping the forest standing is key to containing climate crisis.

• We believe we are racing against time. If deforestation and res in the Amazon Rainforest are not halted, the forest may reach a point of no return in the next decades. This means that it will not be able to regenerate properly, and it might turn into a savannah. Our generation is the last one capable of preventing the forest from collapsing.

• We understand that Brazilian biomes are interconnected, and that what happens in the Amazon Rainforest a ects the entire country. Therefore, we believe that executing actions to protect the Amazon is a task for the entire Brazilian population. Our activities are carried out in streets, in social media platforms and in river areas nationwide in order to amplify the centuries-long struggles that occur in the Amazonian territory.

• We understand the Amazon not only as a forest, but also as a repository of biodiversity, people, cultures and ancestry, which also need to be preserved and protected. The main guardians of this wealth are indigenous peoples, quilombolas, riverside dwellers and traditional peoples.

• Our actions are carried out through social mobilization and the construction of a climate majority that is truly participatory. We believe that collective construction, in dialogue with activists, civilians and social movements and organizations, is a key element to achieving political and environmental change.

• We understand education and culture as pillars of our mass mobilization processes. These are structural paths to transform society, and crucial foundations for raising awareness and engaging people in agendas regarding the Amazon and the climate change.

OUR STRATEGIES

• Creation of a national civic infrastructure for social mobilization.

• Social mobilization aiming at impacting public policies and legislation concerning the Amazon Rainforest, the climate crisis and its e ects.

• Training of activists, collectives and content creators.

• Construction of narratives about the Amazonian territory and climate change.

• Social mobilization through art and culture.

• Strengthening of Amazonian activists, collectives and organizations.

OUR PRODUCTS

• Mobilization campaigns.

• Educational programs and training.

• Online and o ine communication narratives and products.

• Volunteer programs.

• Cultural activities.

• Regrants and funding for grassroots organizations.

OUR RESULTS

• Continuation and expansion of public policies and legislation for the protection of public forests in the Amazon region.

• Greater awareness amongst the Brazilian population about public forests and their importance for fighting against the climate crisis.

• More activists with access to social mobilization tools and methodology to protect the Amazon and its peoples and to strengthen climate justice in Brazil.

• Strengthening of organizations based in the Amazon Region through access to funding and methodology resources to empower their actions and activities.

• Preservation of 57 million hectares of the Amazon Rainforest: ensuring environmental sustainability through the preservation of forest areas under highest risks.

• Protection of the Amazon Rainforest and its cultures: strengthening of indigenous, quilombola groups and traditional peoples, and e ective protection of traditional cultures and the Amazonian territory.

• Strengthening of laws and policies against the climate crisis: establishment and implementation of environmental protection and adaptation measures at a local and national level, bolstering the response to climate crisis.

• Integration of culture into climate justice: transformation of climate justice approaches that assign the cultural eld a key role in the discussions.

THE CONSTRUCTION OF STRATEGIES 2024-2026

2024

• Permanent monitoring of the National Congress and Legislative Assemblies from all states in the Amazon region in order to create fast response campaigns that provide forest conservation policies and prevent the approval of laws that can harm the protection of the Amazon.

• Launch of the Observatory for the Allocation of Public Forests, a platform that explains the allocation policy of public forests in Brazil, and that will have interactive maps of forests to be allocated. The main goal here is to expand the subject’s outreach, o en neglected in public discourse, in addition to contributing to an increase in the federal government’s ambition regarding this policy, which may ensure the protection of more hectares of forest.

• Conducting a public opinion survey that can support the development of narratives connecting the protection of the Amazon to the mitigation of extreme weather events.

• Promotion of the Amazon Day 2024, with events that mobilize thousands of people in Rio de Janeiro (host of the G20 summit) and Belém (host of the COP 30 summit).

• Mobilization activities during the G20 meeting (to be held in the city of Rio de Janeiro in November) to demand from President Lula a greater commitment to the allocation of public forests.

• Expanding the base of activists of Amazônia de Pé and strengthening the organization’s relationship with its volunteers through the creation of AdP’s 2nd Regional Leaders Program and a new, improved and updated volunteer journey.

2025

• Social mobilization activities with thousands of volunteers during the COP 30 summit to pressure President Lula to allocate more hectares of public forest as a means to reinforcing Brazil’s commitment to protect the country’s forests and inspiring climate action from world leaders.

• Training of teachers in 100 indigenous, quilombola and traditional schools in the Amazon Region to establish a connected and informed educational network on climate justice, and encourage teachers to address the issue with their students. The training will also cover mobilization tactics to empower teachers to take territorial action to protect the rights of their communities.

• Establishment of bases of Amazônia de Pé in 50 Brazilian cities, focusing on local and territory-based social mobilization.

• Execution of a decentralized national campaign aimed at newly elected mayors, advocating for the implementation of climate change adaptation plans in at least 10 Brazilian cities of great relevance in national politics.

• Planning of a big event at the National Congress, in Brasília, to deliver the signatures for the Amazônia de Pé Public Demand Bill, attended by experts, leaders, celebrities and thousands of the organization’s activists.

• Expansion of the Amazônia de Pé Caucus, with congressmen and senators willing to co-sign the bill, along with thousands of Brazilians. The caucus will have at least 50 parliamentarians from at least 5 di erent parties, ensuring a diverse and strong legislative process.

2026

• Training of grassroots partner organizations of Amazônia de Pé located in three other Brazilian biomes, aiming at boosting social mobilizations for the protection of these biomes and expanding engagement opportunities for the organization’s volunteers.

• Carrying out a national mobilization during the presidential elections to put the protection of the Amazon Rainforest in the agendas of the main candidates, a er the lessons learned in 2022, when, for the rst time in Brazilian history, the Amazon Rainforest became a signi cant topic in the national elections with the support of social mobilization.

• Implementation of the Amazon Day 2026 at a national level, with simultaneous, decentralized actions in 2,000 cities, aiming to disclose the cause to at least 40% of Brazilian cities during the electoral period.

• Permanent monitoring of the progress of the Amazônia de Pé Bill in the National Congress, with the support of mass mobilization at all stages of the legislative process, to ensure the project’s approval during president Lula’s administration.

INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT

THE SPIN-OFF

At this stage, Amazônia de Pé will become an independent organization a er the spin-o of NOSSAS. This approach will enable the creation of an operational structure 100% dedicated to addressing the challenges of an organization focused primarily on o ine actions across the country. In addition, it will allow the establishment of speci c governance bodies for Amazônia de Pé, in order to e ectively manage the governance challenges presented by the organization, considering the representation of activists, organizations, partners, among others.

MONITORING, EVALUATION AND LEARNING

Amazônia de Pé is an organization that considers data monitoring to be an essential part of its project. We have a department dedicated to monitoring and evaluation, which carries out monthly reports on our work and reviews on our fronts every six months.

We invest in a constant learning ecosystem, as we believe that this is the best strategy to obtain accurate and relevant information, in addition to being the best way to make decisions and necessary adjustments.

Since the beginning of the project, we also have a solid technology team that has helped us develop our own platform to record and track the signatures collected for our bill. The combination of technology and social mobilization is a great internal pillar.

PREVIOUS ACTIONS

THE PUBLIC DEMAND BILL

The Amazônia de Pé Public Demand Bill (PLIP, in Portuguese) emerged a er a round of conversations with experts about crucial topics on the Amazon Rainforest in the current context. A er listening to scientists and leaders, the Allocation of Public Forests was determined as the bill’s primary goal, and a critical issue to ensure the protection of the Amazon Rainforest.

The Amazônia de Pé Public Demand Bill seeks to allocate undesignated public forests situated in the Legal Amazon and leave them to the care of those who are most committed to their preservation: traditional peoples and agents of conservation areas. Currently, over 300 civil society organizations co-signed the bill, including the most prominent gures from the Brazilian indigenous, traditional, riverine, quilombola and agrarian reform movements.

THE ALLOCATION POLICY FOR PUBLIC FORESTS

There are two ways to ensure the allocation of public forests in Brazil: through the Amazônia de Pé Bill or through presidential acts.

The organization, which emerged only 18 months ago, has already proven its worth: during its latest social mobilization e orts across the country (09/05/23), while volunteers of Amazônia de Pé organized hundreds of events and demonstrations, President Lula signed a decree indicating the allocation of 11 million hectares of public land in the Amazon Rainforest to conservation areas and indigenous territories, which brought us 20% closer to our goal – 57 million hectares of protected land. The decree is a green light for us to carry on our demands until all public Amazonian forests are in the hands of those who know how to take care of them.

THE COALITION

The organization aims to build a civic infrastructure for the protection of the Amazon Rainforest with the participation of activists and organizations, both connected for strategic action across all 27 states of the country. Spread from North to South of Brazil, the organization’s diverse coalition already comprises over 300 organizations, which includes prominent gures from Brazilian youth, scientists, leaders from marginalized communities, the most renowned environmental, indigenous and traditional communities’ organizations in Brazil and a multitude of citizens engaged in the cause.

The coalition holds general assemblies with local groups and leaders, aiming at the strengthening of its members through mobilization training, educational programs and regrants strategies.

BRAND BUILDING

Amazônia de Pé has built a robust brand based on its core values: justice, resilience, sensibility, hope, and strength. These values guide the search for forest protection, the perseverance in the face of challenges, the connection with Amazonian stories, the mass mobilization and the necessary resilience to keep the Amazon Rainforest standing.

In visual terms, the brand stands out for its diverse representation of the Amazon Rainforest, extending beyond one single symbol. The iconography incorporates the local fauna, ora, natural phenomena and people, and the choice of the water as a central symbol, with aesthetics inspired by indigenous graphics, reinforces the organization’s singularity. The brand was developed by an Amazonian agency, and resulted in an impactful visual representation that gained popularity on several online and o ine communication platforms. The ag of Amazônia de Pé has taken on a life of its own and can be seen in the hands of activists across the country.

CULTURE AS A MOBILIZATION TOOL

Protecting the forest means primarily understanding that there have been peoples and cultures in that territory for thousands of years, and that their cosmologies give shape to the Amazon Rainforest nowadays. For Amazônia de Pé, the idea of “culture” has, therefore, a double understanding: on the one hand, culture is the subject itself of what we preserve and protect, the culture of indigenous peoples, quilombolas, riverside dwellers, traditional peoples, city dwellers and all those who conform the Brazilian Amazon; and, on the other hand, culture is an important tool for mobilizing civil society; it has the power to amplify voices and support the construction of a narrative about the Amazon Rainforest from the perspective of those who act on it and integrate its the territory.

The rst aspect is addressed in the narrative construction about the organization itself, through the acknowledgement of material and symbolic dimensions of Amazonian peoples’ culture in order to protect the forest. The second aspect addresses culture and art as instruments for social transformation, with highlights on its main milestone, the Virada Cultural Amazônia de Pé. Following the same line of thinking, the Pontos Amazônia de Pé program operates as a network made of dozens of cultural spaces, restaurants and museums nationwide, serving as reference spaces for the organization. These venues are not only places for collecting signatures for the Public Demand Bill; they also promote a wide range of cultural activities.

THE GRASSROOTS CONSTRUCTION

The organization is spread across Brazil, through the local coordination of volunteers and partners in all regions in the country. We built a local-based narrative that speaks to di erent territories and connects the climate crisis’ e ects in each region of Brazil to the protection of the Amazon Rainforest.

Today, Amazônia de Pé holds group actions in the ve regions of the country, with the participation of “pollinators”, that is, the organization’s most dedicated and active volunteers. Aiming at strengthening at a local level, a local leadership program was also developed. The mission is to expand the power of pollinators by training our leaders with mobilization tools, creating regional focal points to develop activism strategies, producing local networks and enabling activists to represent Amazônia de Pé in regional events. The rst edition of the local leaders’ program was held in 2023. Through the course of 2024, 2025 and 2026, the organization intends to hold new editions of the program, this time more robust, with a young leader from each state, totaling 27 young people per year and a network of 100 young leaders by the end of 2026.

THE STRENGTHENING OF THE FIELD

We believe that, in order to save the Amazon Rainforest, we need to strengthen a civic infrastructure that can ght against threats to the forest and its peoples. Therefore, working together with a coalition of hundreds of organizations is one of our key strategies.

Amazônia de Pé believes in a strategy that enables the strengthening of its coalition and the combination of resource allocation and training. Therefore, in 2022 and 2023, the organization ran calls for funding to territory-based organizations and collectives, most of which belonged to the Amazon Region. In 2022, 960,000 reais were allocated to 26 organizations. In turn, in 2023, 40 organizations were granted, with a total of 500,000 reais allocated to the organizations.

In the coming years, the Amazônia de Pé envisions to create more opportunities for resource allocation. We believe that, by doing so, we can further contribute to the democratization of funding in Brazil, and to the strengthening of relatively small groups, led by young marginalized leaders, indigenous people, quilombolas, women and Amazonian leaders, who o en do not have access to large sponsors. We want to support those in the front lines of forest protection struggles in their communities.

In addition to supporting collectives and organizations, Amazônia de Pé also believes in the strengthening of activists through resource allocation and training. In 2022 was held the rst edition of Creators for Climate, a training and career acceleration program for content creators engaged in the socio-environmental agenda. Six young indigenous and black content creators received a monthly stipend, equipment and training for 10 months, which allowed them to produce dozens of pieces to di erent social media platforms.

THE AMAZON DAY

Considering the extensive range of cultural activities, in 2022 was created the Virada Cultural Amazônia de Pé, an annual cultural mobilization milestone to place the Amazon Rainforest on the national agenda. The date for this event was chosen due to the Amazon Day (09/05). The Virada proposes to set the Amazon Day as a milestone in the calendars of the entire country, enabling thousands of people to carry out cultural activities that can keep a dialogue with the population about deforestation in the largest Brazilian biome and its consequences for the climate crisis. From concerts to children’s activities, from lm debates to dinner parties, all actions, whether public or private, are valid.

The rst edition of Virada took place in September 2022 and featured more than 600 activities across Brazil. In Rio de Janeiro (RJ), a music festival in the gardens of Modern Art Museum (MAM Rio) gathered thousands of people, and featured great names of Amazonian and national music on stage. In Santarém (PA), the festival received guests from the local cultural scene.

With more than 450 activities across the country, the second edition of Virada

took place in September 2023, and resonated the cry #AmazôniaDePé and #MarcoTemporalNão in the streets, social media platforms and river areas. During the Virada Cultural, the National Congress and the Federal Supreme Court discussed the Marco Temporal, that is, a historic cut-o point within Brazilian Law that turns demarcation of indigenous territories in the country practically unfeasible. A large festival in Alter do Chão (Borari Indigenous Land in the core of the Amazon Rainforest) had a line-up lled with Amazonian artists.

CLIMATE EDUCATION

As one of its national mobilization tools, the organization engages in educational programs, developed to contribute to the di usion of ideas about the protection of the Amazon Rainforest through dialogue with di erent audiences in formal and informal learning spaces.

The programs are based on ecological education guidelines, and they place mass mobilization as an important tool to promote forest protection. In 2022, the rst edition of the Amazônia de Pé in Schools program was conducted, with the training of teachers and students, and the distribution of school equipment to 296 schools across the country. In 2023, the program Amazônia de Pé in Universities was created to bring students closer to the protection of forests and the agenda of Marco Temporal, in partnership with the National Union of Students, and with the participation of 100 universities from all over Brazil.

BUDGET

Amazônia de Pé has a small but powerful team of 18 paid employees, running more than 20,000 volunteers and 200,000 registered members from all states in Brazil. Further expanding this impressive eld operation will require a budget of roughly US$2,5 million per year, which shall include a strategy to conduct events and the reallocation of resources to territory-based organizations.

We currently estimate US$10 million to maintain the organization for 4 years (2025-2028), covering the next government’s rst two years.

THE ANNUAL BUDGET OF AMAZÔNIA DE PÉ IS DIVIDED AS FOLLOWS:

ABOUT US

The Amazônia de Pé team is made of 18 multidisciplinary professionals from several regions of the country. Among the members, 55% are Amazonian, 89% are women, and 77% are black or indigenous people.
