This activity aims to reflect on pathways and highlight civil society strategies to address future extreme events and ensure climate resilience in traditional territories in the Amazon, within a context marked by historical pressures and threats.

To this end, invited organizations and leaders will share concrete lessons learned from confronting extreme drought, criminal fires, and deforestation that devastated the Amazon between 2023 and 2024. In this way, the event seeks to contribute, in the context of COP30, with insights for advancing climate justice—inseparable from the pursuit of protecting territories and the rights of Indigenous peoples, traditional communities, and family farming.

The activity is a collective initiative, organized in partnership by the Independent Territorial Monitoring Network (Rede MTI), the Center for Sustainability Studies at Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGVces), the Indigenous Territorial Monitoring Management of the Coordination of Indigenous Organizations of the Amazon (GEMTI/COIAB), the Agro é Fogo Coalition, and the Forests and Finance Coalition.

The event features the participation of FGVces researchers Kena Chaves and Eric Macedo.
