Mission Statement
The mission of Acaté is to preserve the Amazon Rainforest in partnership with its protectors. Real on the ground capacity-building underlies all of our initiatives whether it be cultural preservation, territorial protection, or sustainable economic development.
About This Cause
Acate Amazon Conservation works with the indigenous guardians of the Amazon rainforest to create durable conservation solutions. Acate works in the programmatic areas of reforestation, species conservation, territorial protection, indigenous mapping, bilingual education, intergenerational transmission of ancestral knowledge, women’s empowerment, sustainable economy, and food security. Acate is best known for working with the Matsés people to create the first encyclopedia of indigenous plant knowledge. We are also known for our work with the UN Environmental Program to register the first ICCA in Peru. Acate has a ten-year track record of implementing successful projects in the remote Peruvian Amazon.
