One of the sites under consideration is the Mata Atlantica (Coastal Forest)
area in the Southern Cone of the State of Bahia. This is a place where local
poor communities are struggling to gain access to land via articulated
political effort. We have been recently contacted by leaders of these
communities seeking help with the various projects they deem vital,
including those that deal with Reforestation, Human Rights, Youth
Development, Education and Training, as well as Ecological Projects.
