Increasingly, young women across the Amazon and LAC countries are mobilizing to protect their home, their rights, their lives. Whether they are documenting the impacts of the global pandemic, leading protests and legal battles against the overexploitation of their lands, or rallying for climate justice, they are challenging the system for radical change.
