October 2018 Watson et al.’s report summarizes findings and recommendations from an international team of scientists’ efforts to map the world’s remaining terrestrial wilderness and intact ocean ecosystems.

As such, the recognition of local community rights to land ownership and management could be a key way to limit the impacts of industrial activity.” Click Here for full report https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d2f5c193c449e0001b2eb54/1569955104860-D38H7ELBAU1WBXDUEZRI/web%2B1.2.jpg Studies, Reports & Analyses - “Mega-Development Projects In Amazonia.

The second and third days were for a wider group of environmental defenders, and the focus was on capacity building and charting the way into the future.

August 2017 In this analysis of the impact of 6 planned megadams in the Amazon basin including El Bala, the authors conclude that the resulting large reductions in sediment and nutrient supplies will negatively impact floodplain productivity and aquatic productivity. Mercury contamination of both fish and humans is expected to increase above and below the dams.

Toomey January 2019 This paper “presents a case of landscape making in the Madidi region of Bolivia to take a close look at collaborations and conflicts between various groups—indigenous communities, conservation organisations, and protected area officials… these groups have emerged out of a process of creating a shared landscape and that they are interdependent—both deeply entwined and radically distinct…I highlight the importance of interdependence as an active process of becoming, in which the spaces of contact and friction become so complex that the existence of one group is contingent on active engagement with the other.” Click Here for full article https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d2f5c193c449e0001b2eb54/1572429978639-KTX18WGSKZ3FIE0GOYQI/Tierra+de+Resistentes.jpeg Studies, Reports & Analyses - Land of Resistants-Tierra de resistentes Colombia Check // Bolivia 2018 30 journalists, developers and photo/videographers from seven countries (Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guatemala, Mexico and Peru) teamed up to document episodes of violence against environmental leaders and their communities.
