Aktion Amazonas

Aktion Amazonas (AKAM) is a Danish non-profit and member-based nature conservation organization working for the conservation of South American forests, focusing on the Amazon and adjacent forest ecosystems. We are currently committed to conserving more than 2 million hectares of forest in Bolivia and Peru in partnerships with local nature conservation organizations and in close coordination and cooperation with local actors. In Denmark and the EU, we advocate for measures to reduce pressure on tropical forests. AKAM co-founded the South American Forest Conservation Alliance (SAFCA) to drive impactful conservation through knowledge exchange, awareness-raising, and resource mobilization.
