Forest well-being
Our first project is our gateway to the world of the Amazon. We will do this by passing on the knowledge obtained from listening to those who live in the Amazon to the wider world.
We will echo the voices of the Amazonian peoples who tell us about their stories, cultures, territories, legends, traditions and well-being.
The Platform
1. Identification of the territory and getting closer to the Amazonians;
The Walk
2. Immersion in their realities, stories and origins;
3. Valorização de identidades e desenvolvimento de habilidades e competências das juventudes locais;
4. Local youth film their daily routines;
5. Curation of maps, data and additional information;
6. Sharing on the Platform in an interactive manner;
7. Distribution in schools, companies, projects and more.
Dom Phillips made the last years of his life a journey of discovery, listening to everyone without prejudice. His desire was to show that the forest was more than a biome under destruction, but a territory of diverse ancestral knowledge, exuberant beauty and initiatives with a lot of positive impact, however, little known. For him, this knowledge would be capable of reconnecting us with nature and, only then, preserving its socio-biodiversity. Their trails will be guiding routes for our journey in the Amazon.
