Not long ago, the Juma Institute created a 5.5 kilometer ecological trail through different forest environments near the Kaarimã Village.

Along the trail grow plants that have healed, fed, and shaped the Xipaia people for generations. Elders walk the trail with their children and grandchildren, and share knowledge and understanding. Researchers and scientists from the Federal University of Pará supported the Xipia with the collection of specimens along the trail to create a botanical inventory and catalogue of flora species used for herbal medicines and traditional use.

The trail carries the name of Jane Goodall, a treasured friend and partner to this work. Through her Roots & Shoots program and alongside Age of Union, we help sustain the Juma Institute at the heart of the Xipaia's fight for their territory.

Jane name on this path is no accident. It marks a shared belief that protecting the natural world begins with listening to those who know it best.

For years, the hillsides above Baille Tourible, Haiti, had gone bare and brown, stripped of the soil that once fed the community. The families there decided that wasn't how the story would end.

In partnership with KANPE, agronomists and forest rangers born in the valley have raised thousands of fruit and forest seedlings, and many have taken root and held. Bare rock has turned to trees, plants and flowers, and a new beekeeping station is giving families another way to earn.

Bravo to the teams and families making this happen, and thank you to for everything you do.

Award-winning documentary is now streaming on YouTube, starting today, on Amazon Day.

Directed by , executive produced by our founder , and co-produced by and , YANUNI follows Indigenous leader Juma Xipaia and her fight to protect the Amazon Rainforest. Alongside her husband Hugo Loss, a ranger leading high-risk operations against illegal gold mining, Juma navigates politics, threats, and impending motherhood, all at the personal cost of resistance.

This is what we do at Age of Union. We back frontline changemakers like Juma across the globe, funding the people defending the world's last wild places and putting their stories on screen so the world can't look away.

It's breathtaking, emotional, and one of the most powerful documentaries you'll watch this year. Watch it now on Leonardo DiCaprio's YouTube channel.

Today, our founder Dax Dasilva looks back on 2025, a year in which our partners protected more than 2.4 million acres of critical habitat across 22 sites in 8 countries, advanced Indigenous-led conservation on four continents, and carried the work further than ever through storytelling.

YANUNI followed Chief Juma Xipaia's fight to protect her people and the Amazon. Echoes from Eden brought readers through some of the world's most vital ecosystems, and the Black Hole Experience turned the connection between the cosmos & nature into something people can step inside.

Hope only becomes real change when we act together, and the choices we make now will shape what is still here tomorrow. Read the full report at www.ageofunion2025.com

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.
