Last post on Dom's networks the week of his death

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.

Our digital environment will feature free educational “trails” built by Amazonians who will be invited to film their experiences in the territory, as well as informative content about the Amazon such as maps, flora, fauna, history, data, climate and other topics. In this way it can be used as material in educational activities, training and others: accessed by anyone who wants to reconnect with nature.

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.

We want the platform to be a space for collaboration between people and organisations who know, care for the forest and collectively build the territory.
