People Powered Projects

Believe in the ability to adapt and thrive.

We develop projects that create a long-lasting income for rainforest communities.

These locally led initiatives are set up in collaboration with the people living in the rainforests, and are built around their specific needs. This approach tackles a key driver of deforestation: poverty.

When people living in the rainforest have a sustainable income, healthcare, food security and education, it can help stop the need to sell rainforest as a last resort for essential cash.

Healthy people = healthy rainforest.

Developing new income opportunities not only eases financial pressure but also helps protect the rainforest. When the health and wellbeing of these communities is strong, their resilience to rainforest threats, like illegal loggers, gets stronger too.

By delivering projects tailored to the needs and goals of local people, we ensure the rainforest and its valuable carbon stores remain intact for generations to come.
