Your Forest. Your Legacy.
The Amazon’s biodiversity sustains life — and needs protection.
While local communities nurture and protect the land, industrial forces close in — lured by the promise of gold, hidden minerals, and the timber towering above.
The forest, alive with centuries of biodiversity and Indigenous wisdom, risks being flattened for profit. Once deforested, the delicate balance collapses — soil washes away, wildlife disappears, waterways are poisoned, and ancestral knowledge is lost.
One Forest. Thousands of Lives.
Birds: Nature’s Alarm Bells
This area holds more than 500 species of birds — nearly 30% of all birds in Ecuador, representing a big portion of the world's bird diversity. Bird diversity like this signals a healthy ecosystem. If the birds vanish, we know the balance is breaking.
Water: The Forest sustains Life and secures Rights
The land holds natural springs that feed life — for the forest, nearby communities, and far beyond.
Water here connects to the Napo River, a vital artery of the Amazon Basin.
Food, Medicine, and Sovereignty
This forest is more than trees — it’s a living pantry and pharmacy. Fruit trees such as açaí and morete palms, medicinal herbs, and native crops grow from its moist, fertile soil. Through agroforestry, the Kichwa can feed their families, heal their communities, and remain independent of outside markets.
A Dignified Future
For the Kichwa women of Sinchi Warmi, this forest is a blueprint for economic dignity. With its biodiversity, waters, and location, it offers the building blocks for a local economy based on ecotourism, nature education, and sustainable harvests — not extraction.
Ancestral Wisdom Grows Here
This forest is part of Kichwa cultural identity. Children play under its trees, elders share its secrets.
It’s not just biodiversity — it’s memory, language, and belonging.
A Living Lab Nurturing Conservation
Studies already explore carbon cycles and biodiversity here. This forest could become a key site for future research and Amazon conservation efforts.
