SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN THE AMAZON RAIN FOREST

Amazon Green Hope

About


ABOUT AMAZON GREEN HOPE

VISION

To develop a sustainable economy in Peru through green energy, improving public
health, education and reducing poverty.

MISSION

Developing sutainable projects that help Peru grow economically, socially,
environmentally and culturally. We want to develop a sustainable economy where
everyone gets an equal opportunity to become who they want to be.




OUR LOGO

Our logo is inspired by the Victoria Amazonica, a plant unique to the Amazon
River. The leaf symbolizes protection, one leaf of the Victoria Amazonica offers
protection for up to one thousand different species of plants and animals. The
Flower symbolizes hope for a better tomorrow for all the inhabitants of the
Amazon rain forest, humans and animals alike.





OUR PROJECTS


ORGANIC WASTE

Currently Peru has a vast untapped resource that could be used to create green
energy. This resource is called organic waste. Currently most organic waste is
dumped, in the case of Loreto into the Amazon rainforest. This is both a
terrible contamination of the environment and a lost opportunity for green
energy.


WOMENS HEALTH

Due to unawareness of the damage the HPV virus causes Uterine cancer is a huge
problem in Iquitos. We are supporting a project that raises awareness of HPV and
offers testing and treatment to women. 


LOCAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

Loreto is the most underdeveloped region in Peru. Investing in green energy
solutions will create local economic activity. Improving both the climate and
local living standards.

CARMEN NUÑEZ RENGIFO



President of the Association

Carmen Nunez. A obstetrician that is active in politics. She is our main
spokeperson towards the local politics. She has a very wide network on the local
level, the Regional level and the national level.

Our director has organized various social projects in the past. She did a
sustainable development project in Celendin. The goal was to clean up the city
and use the organic waste as a renewable resource. For this she needed to
educate the local populace on the importance of waste separation and recycling.
The organic waste is composted and sold creating a sustainable project.Today
Celendin is still one of the cleanest cities in Peru and the local government
has won many prizes.

She also did a project to raise awareness on uterine cancer. She educated the
population on the importance of regular testing. She then proceeded to organize
a mobile testing facility that to this day continues in operation. The part of
Peru where this project is active has markably lower uterine cancer incidence
than the rest of Peru.
