Amazonas Beirut

Within the Alto Mayo protected forest which spans the border between the San Martin and Amazonas departments of Northern Peru, sits the Coopbam cooperative. The Conservation Initiative, funded by Conservation International, brings sight into this area in an attempt to save the native coffee production. The cooperative acts as a steward of the Alto Mayo, focusing heavily on fighting deforestation, protecting the native forest, and promoting socio economic development. Since coffee is still a major driver of deforestation, The Conservation Initiative helps producers in the area grow in ways that preserve native trees, soil, and ecosystems. Coopbam’s impact stretches beyond great coffee. Creating job opportunities through reforestation programs, establishing women’s committees to represent equity on a local level with a focus on education and healthcare, and delivering cooking stoves and solar panels to member households are just a few of the ways they’ve supported the community as a whole.
