Stand For  Trees

Prioritizing indigenous-led development by scaling up sustainable community forest management. Help continue these activities and traditions, preserve 120,000 hectares of tropical forest, and improve the livelihoods of seven remote indigenous communities on the edge of the Peruvian Amazon.

Nii Kaniti means forest and development' in the indigenous language local to the Ucayali region of central Peru. The project prioritizes indigenous-led development, scaling up sustainable community forest management to improve the livelihoods of seven remote indigenous communities on the edge of the Peruvian Amazon. By preventing land invasions for unsustainable agriculture, illegal use of forest resources, and land grabs, it protects 120,000 hectares of threatened forest, home to animals such as jaguars, macaws, and tapirs.  A distinctive feature is a social enterprise, Nii Biri, which is a hub for indigenous economic activities and supports business administration, scaling of production, and improved market access for local producers.
