"The Amazon Sustainable Landscape is like a dream come true to protect the biodiversity and ecosystem services that the Amazon biome provides to the world. Building on decades of work in Brazil, Colombia and Peru, this program can accelerate the local and regional solutions and innovations happening in the region and disseminate them more widely."
