What does the Living School of the Amazon (EVA) mean for the next generation of Indigenous leaders?
Jhobert Grefa, a young Indigenous leader from the A’i Cofán people in Sucumbíos, Ecuador, and a 2025 EVA graduate, shares how his experience at the school helped him grow as a leader and deepen his commitment to defending his people’s territory.
Today, Jhobert coordinates the Erisiundekhu Cofán Indigenous Guard, working to protect his people’s ancestral lands and rights. 💚🌱
We continue supporting Indigenous youth across the Amazon by creating spaces to learn, share experiences, and strengthen their leadership!

What Indigenous youth learn at the Living School of the Amazon continues to make a difference in their communities. 🌿
José Luis Salazar, a Kichwa Indigenous leader, is a graduate of the Living School of the Amazon (EVA) and an intern with our Amazon Sacred Headwaters Alliance. As president of the Organization of Kichwa Communities of Loreto (OCKIL), he shares how his experience with EVA has strengthened his leadership and his work with his organization.
Through community workdays, workshops, and community gatherings, José Luis encourages more young people to get involved, helping strengthen their organizations and protect their territories. 💚
We continue to support young Indigenous leaders who put what they learn into practice in service of Indigenous peoples and nations!

🌱 Reconnecting with our roots also means recognizing what we can contribute to our communities.
In this video, Carla Medrano, Communications Leader at CONFENIAE, shares her experience with the Living School of the Amazon (EVA), a space where Indigenous youth strengthen their leadership, learn from one another, and develop the skills to support their communities.
💚 Keeping our cultures alive, protecting our territories, and building a future for our peoples are all part of what our young people can achieve together.

'We’ll continue to reject oil extraction, because our cause is just.'
In Ecuador’s Amazon, Indigenous peoples are resisting plans to expand oil extraction into their ancestral territories. They have seen the consequences elsewhere: polluted rivers, contaminated food and serious health impacts. Now, seven Indigenous peoples face the prospect of oil projects on their lands without having been consulted.
For Uyunkar Domingo Peas Nampichkai, an Achuar leader and president of the Amazon Sacred Headwaters Alliance, this is about defending Indigenous peoples’ rights to their territories, protecting one of the world’s most biodiverse regions and deciding their own future.
But the answer is not just saying no to oil. The Alliance is advocating for economic alternatives that protect the rainforest and support Indigenous communities, rather than sacrificing their lands for oil revenues.

What happens when Indigenous youth have the opportunity to learn and contribute to their own organizations? 🌿
As part of our follow-up visits to the Living School of the Amazon (EVA) internship program, we spoke with students and community leaders. Their experiences show how learning happens in their own territories, drawing on Indigenous knowledge and through active participation in their organizations.
In this video, we share what we learned: Indigenous youth putting their knowledge into practice, learning from their communities, and strengthening their leadership in their territories.

Indigenous Resistance Day 🌿
The Indigenous peoples and nations of the Amazon continue to defend their territories, care for the rainforest, and keep the knowledge of their ancestors alive. Our resistance lives on in the ways we care for life, organize our communities, and make decisions about our future.
Resisting means protecting our forests, rivers, and seeds. It means living in reciprocity with nature and defending our own ways of governing and inhabiting our territories.
This October 12, we honor those who came before us and the Indigenous peoples and nations who continue to defend life, autonomy, and the future of the Amazon.

#News 📰
The Amazon Sacred Headwaters Alliance concluded its participation in Climate Week NYC 2026 with one clear message: the Amazon is not only a territory to protect. It is a territory that creates solutions to the climate crisis.
Over one week, we brought our Bioregional Plan and financing proposal to funders, companies, international cooperation agencies and the United Nations. These spaces included UNDP’s Bioeconomy Showcase, the roundtable Financing Indigenous Territorial Stewardship and the SDG Media Zone at UNGA 81. There, our Executive Director, Zenaida Yasacama, reminded us that protecting the Amazon is a global responsibility.
Indigenous peoples are not beneficiaries of climate projects. They are territorial authorities and key actors in designing solutions. The proposals we brought to New York weren’t born there. They were born in the territories, and that is where the action continues.

#InterculturalEducation 🌳
As part of the next stage of our Living School of the Amazon (EVA), students are taking what they’ve learned back to their communities. They are leading talks on environmental education and ancestral medicine at local schools, as well as workshops in their own communities.
During our follow-up visits, we provide them with materials to support these activities and put their learning into practice. These experiences also create spaces to connect with the knowledge and traditions of their Indigenous peoples and strengthen their leadership in their territories.

#InterculturalEducation 🌳
Our Living School of the Amazon (EVA) is built with Indigenous peoples by listening to what is happening in their territories and learning from it.
As part of their training, EVA students return to their communities to put what they’ve learned into practice. During this stage, while they work within their organizations, we visit them: we sit down with students and their leaders to talk about their experiences, their contributions, and what they still need to keep moving forward.
Their voices help us strengthen an education rooted in the life of each organization and territory.
This is how EVA is built: in dialogue with Indigenous peoples. 🌿

#InterculturalEducation 🌳
46 Indigenous youth from Ecuador and Peru are continuing their training with the Living School of the Amazon (EVA), now in the communities of their Indigenous nations and peoples.
At EVA, we support them during their field placements to see how they are participating, what they are learning, and how we can strengthen this process together with their community leaders.
Each experience in the territory is part of their training and also contributes to their communities and organizations.
