Friends of Mother Earth (FME) and Proactive Youth for the Amazon (JUPROA) have entered into a two-year inter-institutional cooperation agreement to support sustainability, livelihoods, and climate resilience initiatives in Bolivia’s Amazon region.
The partnership brings together JUPROA’s strong local presence, youth leadership, and community networks with FME’s technical experience in climate resilience, disaster preparedness, environmental protection, and project development.
Initial activities will focus on the department of Pando, with the potential to expand collaboration to Beni, La Paz, and Santa Cruz. Together, the organizations will work to identify funding opportunities, develop joint projects, and support vulnerable populations, including youth, women, Indigenous communities, and rural families.
This alliance reflects a shared commitment to strengthening local leadership, protecting ecosystems, and building sustainable livelihoods in the Bolivian Amazon.
Through cooperation, community engagement, and locally grounded action, FME and JUPROA aim to help advance a more resilient and sustainable future for the people and ecosystems of Bolivia.
