Preservação da Amazônia e fortalecimento das culturas indígenas
Guardiões da Floresta: Protegendo Saberes e Territórios
O Instituto Guardiões da Floresta é uma organização não governamental, voltada para a preservação da Amazônia e o fortalecimento da cultura tradicional dos povos que nela habitam.
O objetivo do IGF é auxiliar na preservação e valorização dessas culturas, que com um vasto conhecimento do ecossistema amazônico, vivem há milhares de anos em integração com a natureza, como guardiões desse precioso patrimônio da humanidade.
O IGF busca dar condições para que estes povos, além de perpetuar as tradições e saberes dos seus antepassados, possam também continuar a desenvolver suas pesquisas, aprofundando seus estudos e proporcionando um desenvolvimento integrado com as ciências naturais e humanas.
Atualmente desenvolvemos projetos relacionados a salvaguarda da memória imaterial destes povos. Desde sua fundação em 2010, o IGF atende as etnias que habitam na floresta. O Instituto tem como princípio contribuir para que sejam atendidas as necessidades reais destes povos, viabilizando projetos demandados pelas próprias comunidades, em estreita parceria com as lideranças indígenas, cooperativas e associações de base, por meio de uma relação que vem sendo construída ao longo de onze anos entre os membros do IGF e os povos indígenas.
