Indigenous communities are the main ones facing the direct consequences of climate change due to their intricate relationship with the environment, their culture and their resources. In the case of the Amazon, environmental devastation and exploitation threaten the basic human rights of its native peoples, which, added to the impacts of climate change, threatens the survival of its biodiversity. In this plot, indigenous women play a crucial role in the intergenerational transmission of ancestral knowledge about caring for the land. The growing mobilization of indigenous women's organizations in resource preservation is highlighted in decolonial ecofeminist debates. Intertwining the rights of women and those of nature, seeking alternatives for the preservation of life. Within this framework, this project will examine how a new understanding of what constitutes evidence-based knowledge can become crucial for an ontological turn in forms of sustainable knowledge production and transmission, to halt the destruction of Amazonian biodiversity. We refer specifically to the productive practices of indigenous women in their ways of preserving traditional knowledge. We investigate the connection between the organizational forms of women's collectives in the Amazon regions of Brazil-Colombia and their relationship with nature. At another level, we will conceptualize how indigenous and non-indigenous technologies can be intercepted, for the creation of technologies that contribute to expanding the fields of action and sustainable development, in the mitigation of climate change. We will create a knowledge integration platform, useful for indigenous and scientific communities. By creating an open-access data bank, we will invest in legal frameworks that protect the intellectual and cultural property of communities and can enhance and drive future initiatives.ver más
