Achievements in 2023 Could Signify the Turning Point for the Amazon in 2024

December 27, 2023 | Eye on the Amazon

We are committed, we are inspired, and we are grateful.
Thank you for partnering with us on this critical work for all of our collective future!

As 2023 closes, it’s time to look back over the many inspiring achievements of the year. Hope and progress for the future of the Amazon and climate have been restored. In 2024, we will build upon the recent victories to protect Indigenous land rights and preserve the Amazon for the benefit of us all. 2023 showed us what our movement can achieve when we stand in solidarity and challenge the forces bent on Amazon destruction.

Our yearly Amazon in Focus report highlights the many victories and, of course, coming threats to the Amazon. These include the historic vote in Ecuador to keep oil in the ground in the Yasuní National Park, as well as the ongoing and critical fight to preserve Indigenous land rights in Brazil by defeating  “Marco Temporal” and expanding the demarcation of Indigenous lands. We are so proud and honored to have worked closely with Indigenous peoples, organizations, and movements in all of these efforts.

In the struggle for environmental justice, decolonization, and respect for Indigenous and human rights, it is critical to celebrate our victories and build momentum to face what comes next. We are thankful for all your support in 2023, and we hope you stay with us to meet the challenges and build even more victories in 2024. For the Amazon!
