The Amazon, the world’s largest rainforest and river system, is crucial for global climate stability and maintaining biodiversity. The region is home to 47 million people, including over two million Indigenous people. However, it faces unprecedented challenges like deforestation, degradation, and criminal activity, and risks reaching a tipping point.
This course, launching March 18, is available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, and offers insights into the Amazon’s ecosystems. Taught by experts, the course spans disciplines like biodiversity, conservation, land use change, climate science, anthropology, and human rights, catering to practitioners, students, and professionals across sectors.
