The Jaguar Rivers Initiative is a bold and urgent continental effort dedicated to restoring, protecting, and connecting ecosystems in the heart of South America.
Through an unprecedented alliance of four leading grassroots organizations, our mission is to safeguard one of the largest river systems in the world, securing the future of endangered species and the resilience of local communities, while contributing to the restoration of global ecological integrity.
