Amazon Aid is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization with the mission to preserve and protect the rainforest for the health of the entire planet. We focus on systems change in the dangerous and growing threat of illicit and unregulated artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM), which has contributed to rampant deforestation, heavy mercury pollution, violence against indigenous and local communities, criminal activity, and has devastating ripple effects across the globe.
Since 2009, Amazon Aid has leveraged integrative science, art, and multimedia efforts to elevate the issue globally. We partner with scientists, NGO’s, Indigenous peoples, industry leaders, governments, and comprehensive representation along the gold supply chain to address these global environmental and human rights abuses. We understand that transforming the gold supply chain will necessitate diverse stakeholders working together. We are already leading these efforts and launching an action plan.
We envision an Amazon free of destructive mining practices where people have access to safe, dignified livelihoods and ecosystems thrive.
