Over 14,000 saplings of the endangered pernambuco tree have been distributed from our nursery at the Federal University of Espírito Santo, and planted at various locations on the Atlantic coast.

Partnership with the Guarani nation to regenerate the Atlantic Forest more urgent than ever after an arson attack at a sacred site.

We have part-funded our project with the Kaingang nation, to plant their sacred tree in order to regenerated their ancestral lands. The project will start with a road trip to collect a range of seeds, that will be planted in the new nursery.

As summer holidays in a heatwave draw to a close, and parents and teachers start to think about lessons for the new school year, what can we do to prepare young people for the challenges they are facing?

The most successful regeneration projects are led by Indigenous people, and many groups have special, even spiritual relationships with certain tree species that can rapidly regenerate their ancestral lands. Learn more about RAIN partnerships with Indigenous nations for reforestation.

Equipment for the Indigenous Terena to tell their stories

British actor Miriam Margolyes has joined an Indigenous leader and two London orchestras to bring out a stirring new video of a traditional Indigenous song.

Our friends from the Terena nation have stories to tell - watch the video of them introducing their collective!

After three generations of struggle, a patch of Kaingang Indigenous territory is returned to the tribe

Metsre Poa, leader of the Indigenous Noke Koi nation, presents a song of the history of his tribe.

The project proposed is to build two large nurseries, employing four full-time workers and producing around 100,000 trees each per year.

Many of these trees will be given to other tribes and communities, with the intention that they too will begin to regenerate their lands and recover ancestral modes of living in harmony with the earth.

The first two nurseries can be built and staffed for £3000 each, clearing the way for more projects in the future.

The Terena culture used to occupy tens of thousands of hectares, most was taken from them and degraded.

The River Buriti, that feeds 13 separate aldeias (indigenous villages) in the Buriti indigenous reserve, has suffered terribly, and the water volume is dropping year by year as a result.

It is now the thin green line you can see in the top right of the reserve on the map.

We are looking for 13 schools in the Brighton area to twin with 13 schools in the reserve - details of the school scheme here.
