Support this Landscape

The forests of the Tapiche and Blanco River basins, located in the south of the Loreto region, constitute a diverse natural area in the extensive Amazon floodplain. There, our four communities are protecting their forests against illegal logging and deforestation. The Regenera Guardians are leaders in sustainable fisheries management.
