Alianza Arkana is protecting the Amazon rainforest through strategic alliances, environmental stewardship, sustainable projects, and intercultural education programs.

Our work is concentrated in three main program areas:

Environmental Justice and Human Rights

Alianza Arkana partners with indigenous groups, human rights lawyers and other legal support organizations to advocate indigenous rights and environmental justice. We raise national and international awareness about environmental issues in the Amazon to end the pollution, deforestation, and other forms of unsustainable development that hurt communities and their ability to live on their lands.
