Our Partners
Partnering with
Peruvian and international organizations
We partner with local NGOs in Peru and international organizations to accelerate our mission to protect the forest and advance the livelihoods of local communities.
Our local partners include:
Federation of Native Communities of the Medio Napo, Curaray and Arabela.
FECONAMCUA – Federation of Native Communities of the Medio Napo, Curaray and Arabela. (Federacion de Comunidades Nativas del Medio Napo, Curaray y Arabela)
Centre for the Development of the Amazonian Indigenous.
This is a Peruvian NGO with more than three decades of experience working for the sustainable development of indigenous peoples throughout the Peruvian Amazon. GGF is working with CEDIA to.
Law, Environment and Natural Resources.
It is a Peruvian NGO, based in Loreto, which has been fighting for the sustainable management and use of the natural resources of the Amazon for more than 15 years. Its work focuses on environmental law and policy and indigenous peoples. GGF and DAR are exploring ways in which we can work together to bring greater benefit to local communities.
Space Intelligence
This a NatureTech company specialising in Digital MRV across the tropics to support nature-based solutions to climate change. It also cuantifies the units of carbon stored/retained through the collection of information on forest cover, habitats, vegetation and carbon storage using satellite images.
Working with
world-renowned scientific organizations
GGF has strong existing relationships with academic institutions including Instituto de investigaciones Instituto de Investigación de la Amazonía Peruana (IIAP), Botanic Gardens Conservation International and the University of Cambridge in the UK.
We sponsor research programs to investigate how non-timber resources in the forest can be used by local communities (such as fruit ). Meanwhile, the research center we are developing will help generate deeper understanding of rainforest ecosystem, enable increased eco-science tourism, bringing researchers, filmmakers, journalists and others to work in a uniquely important and biodiverse habitat.
Organizations:
Partnering with
business to deliver for people and planet
We work with private enterprises who want to have a positive impact on nature and people. By selling Verra-certified Verified Carbon Units businesses can back a nature-based solution to climate change, help restore biodiversity, and deliver for local communities in the Amazonian rainforest. We are looking to partner with businesses looking to provide economic opportunities to communities around the forest
Developing a sustainable future, through international coordination
We work with local, national and international governments to develop a sustainable future for the Amazonian rainforest. One which provides economic opportunities whilst prioritizing carbon capture and biodiversity instead of logging and deforestation.
Our awarded project with USAID is enabling us to demonstrate how rainforests can successfully generate sustained benefits for local communities and biodiversity, when they use forest resources sustainably.
In 2021 The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) awarded GGF a three-year contract to implement its project ‘Sustainable Management of Forest Concessions’ in Peru’s Amazon rainforest.
This research project’s purpose is to investigate how forest enterprises can successfully develop and implement innovative multi-source forest management models that generate positive economic and environmental outcomes, while generating sustained benefits for forest communities and biodiversity.
To deliver this project GGF implemented “no-logging” regimes in large production areas in the forest and successfully established multiple new economic activities for these areas, including such as payment for environmental services through carbon credits, use of non-timber forest products, ecotourism and research.
