About Me |
I have been working with the National Council of Rubber Tappers (Conselho Nacional dos Seringueiros - CNS) since 2005. The CNS is a grassroots movement of traditional families living and working in the Brazilian Amazon rainforest. They, the "extrativistas" live in extractive reserves (RESEX) where they harvest the forest's natural resources collectively according to use plans that guarantee the preservation of the natural environment.
RESEX are a wonderful example of sustainable livelihood, valuing family, nature, mother earth and life in all forms.
