Yungas PROJECT

Protecting Peru’s cloud forests by creating wealth within indigenous communities

About Yungas

We strengthen livelihoods to strengthen conservation. Because lasting biodiversity begins with thriving communities.


When Indigenous farmers earn fair incomes, they can stay on their land, protect the forest, and pass their culture forward.
