They play an invaluable\u00a0role to increase understanding and awareness of sustainable development challenges and to protect biodiversity from the harmful effects of activities such as deforestation, fires, land-grabbing. The damage to ecosystems such as the Amazon is not being done by accident: much of the devastation is a result of deliberate choices and policies that can be reversed through shining a light on them.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>NPWJ underlines that institutional efforts at national, regional and international level should aim at the establishment of appropriate mechanisms of protection to guarantee that defenders can exercise their rights; the promotion and the recognition of the role of defenders; ensuring accountability through prompt investigations for cases of abuses against defenders. Also very important is the ratification and implementation of the Regional Agreement on Access to Information, Public Participation and Justice in Environmental Matters. The so-called Escaz\u00f9 Agreement is the first regional environmental agreement in Latin America and the Caribbean that has officially entered into force after the ratification of 12 countries on 22 April 2021. However, in the Amazon basin, it has only been ratified by Ecuador, Bolivia and Guyana.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Through its\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.npwj.org\/campaigns\/human-and-environmental-devastation-in-the-amazon\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>campaign against deforestation in the Amazon<\/strong><\/a>, launched in 2019\u00a0with the support of the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nandoandelsaperettifoundation.org\/en\/page.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Nando and Elsa Peretti Foundation<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0and local partners,\u00a0NPWJ\u00a0is at the forefront in the protection of the rights of indigenous peoples and against the impunity\u00a0for\u00a0ecocide\u00a0and environmental damage in the region.\u00a0One of the main objectives of the campaign is to raise awareness about the effects of climate crimes such as land grabbing, deforestation or water pollution as well as to promote accountability\u2019s\u00a0venues for holding those responsible for crimes against nature and its defenders accountable.
