Amazon Watch

Amazon Watch is a nonprofit organization founded in 1996 to protect the rainforest and advance the rights of indigenous peoples in the Amazon Basin. We partner with indigenous and environmental organizations in campaigns for human rights, corporate accountability and the preservation of the Amazon's ecological systems. Amazon Watch is also a member of the Alliance of Organizations for Human Rights (Alianza de Organizaciones Por Los Derechos Humanos) a coalition of organizations working together to advocate for human rights in Ecuador and bring justice to the indigenous peoples and communities affected by the recent oil spill.
