"Qui vivono #Siona, #Cofán, #Shuar, #Siekopai, #Achuar e #Kichwa: popoli che custodiscono questo territorio in equilibrio con la foresta.
Per loro, la terra non è una risorsa da consumare, ma un essere vivente con cui convivere."

♀️ 📢 Mujeres #indígenas #shuar van al rescate de las huertas en la #Amazonia ecuatoriana.
#Aja en su lengua significa #huerta. Pero esta no es una huerta cualquiera: es una de las 46 ajas shuar que las mujeres de tres comunidades de Pastaza —Nayum Entsa, Chapints y Kawa— han recuperado en 2025, gracias a un proyecto agroecológico impulsado por la Federación de Nacionalidades Shuar (Fenash) de Pastaza y la fundación Naturaleza y Cultura Internacional (NCI).

"La leader indigena si è schierata apertamente contro l’impresa canadese e il suo progetto di aprire una miniera di rame nel cuore del territorio #Shuar, nell’amazzonia ecuadoriana meridionale.
Nonostante minacce di morte, scontri con molotov, pietre e bastoni tra fazioni e tentativi di manipolare l’opinione pubblica. Il nostro reportage, a pochi chilometri dalla frontiera con il #Perù."
Citizens of #Ecuador voted this week to halt the development of oil drilling in the #Yasuní national park in the #Amazon, the Guardian reported.
In what Climate Home News described as a “first of its kind” referendum, the Ecuadorian public voted 59%-41% to #ban #oil #exploitation in “one of the largest biodiversity hotspots on the planet”, which is “home to Indigenous people in voluntary isolation”.
OIL STAY PUT: The result will require #Petroecuador, Ecuador’s state-owned oil company, to close all of its active oil wells and remove all infrastructure from a portion of the national park within a year, reported Axios.
Petroecuador produces nearly 60,000 barrels a day from its current operations in the park, noted the Hill.
The advocacy group Amazon Watch said the decision would “permanently keep an estimated 1bn barrels of oil in the ground”.
SETTING AN EXAMPLE
The Spanish-language online magazine Climática reported that ethnic groups #Waorani, #Kichwa and #Shuar considered the referendum a victory and campaigners said that it was the first time Ecuador had “decided to defend life and leave the oil in the ground”.
Brazil’s civil-society organisations said they expected their country to follow Ecuador’s example, Brazilian newspaper Folha de Sao Paulo reported.
