The Colombian Amazon is a biome of extremely high biocultural richness that provides vital ecosystem services while also facing complex socio-environmental pressures. There, traditional uses of Indigenous Peoples, productive systems of peasant, Afro and peace signatory communities, extractive activities and armed conflict coexist.

There are also socio-environmental conflicts driven by the socioeconomic inequalities of its inhabitants, which increase deforestation and affect ecological connectivity. In contrast, there is a tradition of community processes that sustainably manage the territory.

This solution presents the results of the Sustainable Amazon for Peace project, which strengthened environmental governance for #PazConLaNaturaleza, through conservation practices and sustainable use of biodiversity in the northwestern Amazon (where there are high deforestation rates); with the support of public policies formulated by the institutions contributing to the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) and climate action.
