Dear Friends,
We are excited to share the
Amazon Sustainable Landscapes (ASL) Progress Report
with you
. This publication provides an overview of our program and the main accomplishments of each of the national projects in Brazil, Colombia and Peru, from initiation in the first quarter of 2018 through December 2019.
These accomplishments result from the strong collaboration and commitment of the ASL partners, national and subnational governments, executing and implementing agencies, associated partners, the Global Environment Facility (GEF) Secretariat, and all the team members and communities in the field.
We look forward to continuing our journey towards a protected and productive Amazon that benefits not only the local people, but also the global community as we expand the program to four additional countries—Bolivia, Ecuador, Guyana, and Suriname—in the next phase of the ASL, approved by the GEF Council in June 2019.
Thanks to all the partners, team members, local communities and friends that are behind the accomplishments reflected in this report. We are united to protect biodiversity and promote sustainable land and water use in the Amazon region.
The ASL Team
