🌿 Introducing the Medio Putumayo‑Algodón Regional Conservation Area!
This is an incredible conservation win for Peru’s megadiverse Putumayo‑Amazon landscape!

🔹 A massive reach – 700,778 acres (283,595 ha) now protected in one of Earth’s richest biodiversity hotspots. It safeguards Amazonian forest, rivers, floodplains, and lagoons across Peru’s Putumayo region.
🔹 Biodiversity haven – Home to Harpy Eagles, Yellow-spotted River Turtles, Bush Dogs, and countless plant and aquatic species.
🔹 Community stewardship – Protects local food sources and ancestral territories of more more than 700 Indigenous people of the Murui (Huitoto), Yaguas, Ocaina, Kukama-Kukamiria, Kichwa, Secoya, Maijuna and Bora peoples, while preventing the threats of gold mining and mercury pollution.

This achievement underscores the power of Indigenous-led conservation, , government commitment and strategic partnerships in defending the Amazon’s future.

The Medio Putumayo Algodón Regional Conservation Area was established through the leadership and participation of the regional government of Loreto, the regional environmental agency of Loreto, surrounding communities, local Indigenous federations, and Peru’s National Service of Natural Protected Areas and the technical support of our partner instituto.del.bien.comun as well as spda_peru, ci_peru, and the fieldmuseum of Chicago. This project was supported financially by andesamazonfund, Wyss Foundation, #ArtintoAcres, Rewild, bezosearthfund and moorefound #MedioPutumayo #AmazonConservation #AndesAmazonFund #Biodiversity #IndigenousStewardship #ProtectTheAmazon #ClimateAction
