How Project Affects Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions:

High-diversity native species based agroforestry systems are planted alongside Amazonian native communities and smallholder farmers to restore endangered species, avoid deforestation and improve livelihoods of Amazonian communities. The creation of these forest-imitating perennially productive areas provide non-timber forest products, and reduce pressure on the forest and its resources.

Impact on Underrepresented Groups:

Camino Verde‚ leadership team represents gender diversity, with 50% of its core members being women. This includes the Administrative Director, Farm Coordinator, and Communications Director. 

Through our project, we hope to economically empower the 4 indigenous communities we are partnering with in Loreto: Brillo Nuevo, Ancon Colonia, Puca Urquillo, and Estiron de Cusco. These communities form part of the incredible ethnic diversity of Peru, though gender imbalances can often be a problem in native communities. Though these cultural norms can be deeply embedded within communities, members of all genders contribute to the income of the community and will benefit from stable revenues from our agroforestry projects.
