This week, Bogotá hosts the Amazon Dialogues, where Amazon governments convene to discuss main challenges.

With our journalistic partners and @amazonwatch.org, we have publications lined up about the Amazon's most disputed borderlands and why this should be on the political agenda.

Stay tuned!

7/ We've been focusing—and will continue to do so—on the mapping of the presence of crime/armed groups, but also invest in fieldwork to be able to offer in-field insights, empathetic reporting, exposing global relations with Amazon crime, and attractive storytelling.

5/ Our first phase had many highlights: we travelled to international conferences and events, such as the COP16 on Biodiversity, won awards, such as the Gabriel García Márquez award in Bogotá, and were able to lay the groundwork for what comes next.

3/ Our new website just went live, we have a new logo, and instead of one-off journalistic series, we will publish frequent feature-length articles, (short) documentaries, op-eds from experts from and on the Amazon, and investigative reports.

But first, a look back...

2/ In Amazon Underworld, we bring together six media outlets and will have frequent publications and media specials.

How can we cooperate to protect the environment and Amazonian communities?
