Support to Youth Groups

In tandem with its partners, PSA has trained several youth groups to organize independently. From this work, about 10 community groups from the Tapajós-Arapiuns Extractive Reserve (Resex) and the Tapajós National Forest joined forces with the Tapajós Youth Group which, in addition to its own actions and campaigns, can begin to support the formation of new groups.

Among the projects created through the Cabocla Web is a vertical garden at the Suruacá community school; an awareness campaign on the Statute of Children and Adolescents in the community of São Pedro; the rural radio production “Rádio Mosquito” in Carão; the school newspaper “Conexão Cipó” in Anã; environmental education projects in the Muratuba and São Francisco villages (Parauá); the “Areia Branca” Cultural Identity Festival in Urucureá; the “Olhar Kumaruara” Community Cinema, in the Solimões village; and a dance project focused on health and education in the community of Pedra Branca.
