Supporting Indigenous Amazon Entrepreneurs
Marcelo Cwerner: Today we learn about indigenous entrepreneurs in the Amazon. Many valuable fruits, nuts, herbs and other forest products originate from the Amazon. Even though these resources are sought by consumers, source communities are at risk of losing their land, nature and livelihoods. To help promote conservation, NESsT partnered with indigenous organizations to develop programs that scale Amazon-centric ventures to global markets. Marcelo Cwerner of NEsST joins us to tell the story.
