Last week, we unveiled our involvement in the Phoenix Species Project, the biggest philanthropic effort ever dedicated to recovering critically endangered species. Led by Leonardo DiCaprio, Re:wild, and the Bezos Earth Fund, it launches with $200 million to help 100 species across 30 countries come back from the brink.

For us, this builds directly on the partnership we formed with Re:wild in 2025, which brought together their scientific reach with our storytelling and on-the-ground conservation, starting with a $1 million commitment to protect Madagascar's threatened forests.

One of the Phoenix 100 is the golden-crowned sifaka, a lemur found only in those same northern Madagascar forests, so this is a natural next chapter in work we're already deeply invested in.

Today we published the Age of Union 2025 Impact Report.

Since we began, we have directed close to $20 million in multi-year climate investments to grassroots teams protecting more than 2.4 million acres of critical habitat across 22 sites in 8 countries. Those forests, rivers and coastlines now store over 356 million tonnes of carbon and shelter more than 9,000 species, including over 200 that are threatened.

Every one of those numbers belongs to people working on the ground, and this year that meant Instituto Juma in Brazil, Re:wild in Madagascar, Junglekeepers in Peru, Association Kalaweit in Indonesia, Nature Seekers in Trinidad, Fondation KANPE Foundation in Haiti, and BC Parks Foundation and Nature Conservancy of Canada / Conservation de la nature Canada here in Canada. Two new partnerships added 806,678 acres this year alone, including a five-year, $1 million commitment to biodiversity work in Madagascar.

Protecting a place also means making the world care about it, which is why our storytelling work sits alongside the field work. YANUNI, our documentary following Indigenous leader Juma Xipaia, premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival and earned Oscar shortlist consideration, while the second season of On the Frontline carried these stories to audiences who may never set foot in the Amazon.

Today, we are proud to announce that Age of Union is joining the Phoenix Species Project, the biggest philanthropic push ever to recover critically endangered species.

Led by our partners at Re:wild and the Bezos Earth Fund, it launches with $200 million to help 100 species across 30 countries come back from the brink.

One of these species lives somewhere we know well: the golden-crowned sifaka, a lemur found only in the forests of northern Madagascar. Age of Union has been working alongside Re:wild in Madagascar for a year now, and this is the next chapter of that partnership.

For 45 days, the Xipaya walked every border of their land, 442,318 hectares of Amazon they refuse to lose. 🌳

In April and May 2025, a crew of Xipaya territorial agents and partners completed a resolute 45-day expedition across the Xipaya Indigenous Land in the Terra do Meio, Brazil. They surveyed and monitored all 442,318 hectares, demarcating boundaries, identifying threats and invasion points, and locating the fruits, plants and materials their people rely on.

Along the way, they mapped strategic areas for sustainable harvesting, Copaíba, Andiroba and Açaí, and the trees whose seeds become the women's community crafts. Everything they record becomes a territorial reference map of the Xipaya land. It consolidates the expedition's findings into a strategy for monitoring and protection, helping community leaders decide where to act first.

Meet the next generation of agro-foresters in Baille Tourible, Haiti. 🌱

As part of their Farmer Field School curriculum, school children are learning the full cycle of conservation: planting fruit and forest seedlings, growing vegetables like cabbage, spinach, tomatoes and leeks, understanding the vital role of bees in protecting biodiversity, and caring for beekeeping stations.

Guided by KANPE's local agronomists and technicians, the students go on to grow their own vegetable gardens, turning a lesson into a livelihood.

Since 2020, this Farmer Field School program has produced more than 25,000 fruit and forest seedlings every single year, helping reforest the barren mountains around the community and strengthen food security for local families.

Thank you for standing with the community.

To protect leatherback sea turtles, we need to understand where they go after nesting.

During the 2025 nesting season, satellite transmitters were deployed on nesting leatherback sea turtles to track their post-nesting movements, migratory pathways, and important foraging habitats.

Age of Union is proud to support this research, helping generate the data needed to inform stronger marine conservation planning and reduce threats along their migration pathways.

You can read about a dying coastline. It's another thing entirely to kneel on one at night, watching a sea turtle return to a beach that's barely holding on.

After launching Age of Union, our founder Dax Dasilva went straight into the field: night beaches, river crossings, and conversations with the people risking everything to protect what's left. What he came back with is an honest reckoning of where we are, and a reminder that the living world is worth fighting for.

The book is out now, with every copy supporting the Jane Goodall Legacy Fund. You can find it on Amazon, Indigo, or your local bookstore.

From October 20 to 24, 2025, Pitjiptjia Village hosted a Xipái Language Revitalization Workshop, bringing together teachers and community members working to restore and strengthen their mother tongue.

Guided by the theme “Our language is our root,” the workshop focused on deepening the study of Xipái and creating teaching materials for Indigenous schools across the territory.

This work goes far beyond the classroom. It is about protecting heritage, strengthening Indigenous autonomy, and helping future generations stay connected to their language, culture, and identity.

At Age of Union, we're very proud to support initiatives rooted in preservation, resilience, and community-led knowledge.

At Age of Union, we believe deeply that those with influence have a responsibility to listen, amplify, and stand with the communities on the frontlines of conservation.

Last year, during Prince William’s visit to the Emílio Goeldi Museum in Belém, Juma Xipaia stood alongside Indigenous leaders from across the Amazon to bring attention to the future of the forest and the communities protecting it.

The moment carried a message Indigenous leaders have long shared: protecting the Amazon means protecting biodiversity, culture, land rights, and the people who defend these ecosystems every day.
