Saving the Amazon Foundation is committed to various projects for the conservation of the Amazon rainforest and its people.

A period of at least 2 years is considered necessary to ensure the self-sustaining growth of the trees.

Through our platforms, such as savingtheamazon.org/ and geoforest.savingtheamazon.org/  we make it easier for people and institutions around the world to contribute to the planting of native trees and for companies to acquire
corporate forests. Following the indigenous worldview, where memory is preserved by saying a name, we
allow sponsors to assign names to the trees they plant. This gesture creates a symbolic bond that extends
their legacy and connects them to the land and the community.
Our model provides a sustainable economic alternative to communities in tropical rainforests, who, with their
ancestral wisdom, decide which species to plant, where to plant them and how to carry out the process. To
date, we have planted more than 650,000 trees, offset more than 700,000 tons of carbon and worked hand
in hand with 33 indigenous communities, directly impacting more than 1,200 people, especially women who
belong to communities with high rates of multidimensional poverty in Colombia. , Brazil and Peru.
The project is coherently aligned with national, departmental and municipal plans, promoting sustainability,
economic development and strengthening of indigenous communities. In Colombia, the National
Development Plan is the basis that establishes the guidelines for the country's public and private policies,
guiding departmental and municipal plans. The national government defines this plan as the main framework,
which is then adapted to the specific characteristics of each department and municipality. Departmental plans
are directed by the governorates, while municipal plans are defined by the mayors, each one aligning with
local and regional realities.



A minimum period of 2 years is considered to ensure self-sustaining growth of the trees.

An annual report will be delivered during the first two or three years, with information about the planting and state of plant growth with photographic records.
Through our georeferencing system we can track our forests. In addition, our constant contact with the indigenous communities involved in the project provides us with all the necessary information to evaluate the development of the project.

Transforming Mitu - De Hoorn Forest

Mitú, een gemeente in de Colombiaanse Vaupés, staat op een kruispunt. Aan de ene kant wordt het geconfronteerd met uitdagingen zoals ontheemding van het platteland, de aanwezigheid van illegale gewassen, zwakke aanwezigheid van de staat, milieuvervuiling en ontbossing. Aan de andere kant heeft het een enorm potentieel voor duurzame plattelandsontwikkeling en de bescherming van zijn waardevolle ecosysteemdiensten.
