Deforestation in the Amazon puts uncontacted tribes in danger
New Film from Indigenous Filmmakers to Watch and Share
Dear <<First Name>>,
This week a remarkable documentary from Indigenous filmmakers of Mídia Índianetwork, including Flay Guajajara, was released. The footage captures the uncontacted tribe, the Awá Guajá, from the Araribóia indigenous territory, and alerts to the grave situation faced by them in one of the most endangered regions of the Amazon.
The Awá Guajá depend intrinsically on the forest for survival. However, the forest in the Araribóia indigenous territory is under serious threat. Around it nothing is left standing.
The aim of this film is to mobilise the global community to protect the Awá Guajá - It's been subtitled in 4 languages, English, Portuguese, Spanish, French and we're awaiting Indonesian. For more context in on the story visit: Deforestation in the Amazon puts uncontacted tribe in danger
