The United Nations’ International Day of the World's Indigenous People is observed on August 9 each year to promote and protect the rights of the world’s Indigenous population. In January 2024, Amazon Sacred Headwaters received the Collective Social Innovation Award at #wef24. This recognition was a testament to their incredible efforts in protecting the tropical rainforests and rights for Indigenous populations. The Alliance is building a shared vision among Indigenous peoples, NGOs, the philanthropic community, social entrepreneurs, and governments towards establishing a bi-national protected region – off-limits to industrial-scale resource extraction and governed in accordance with traditional Indigenous principles of cooperation and harmony that foster a mutually enhancing human-Earth relationship.
