Congratulations to the Amazon Cooperation Treaty Organization for its recent decision to create the Amazon Indigenous Peoples’ Mechanism (MAPI), which establishes a formal role for Indigenous peoples within their governance mechanisms.

ACTO (OTCA en español ou português) is an intergovernmental organization linking the eight Amazonian countries, as well as a GBIF organizational participant. More info: https://otca.org/en/otca-gives-historic-green-light-to-indigenous-rights-in-the-amazon/

Anúshiik (Munsee/Lenape for “thank you”),
