The Europe Peace Foundation supports President Lula da Silva for his dedicated efforts in passing legislation to combat deforestation in Brazil by 2030. Recently the president sent the Escazú Agreement to Congress.
This bold initiative demonstrates a profound commitment to protecting Brazil’s invaluable natural resources and the defenders of its environment, while also aligning with our foundation’s mission to preserve the planet for future generations.

Deforestation not only poses an existential threat to the Earth’s biodiversity and ecosystems but also has significant ramifications for humanitarian aid. It disrupts the delicate balance of ecosystems, leading to the displacement of vulnerable communities who rely on forests for their livelihoods and sustenance. The destruction of forests exacerbates climate change, which intensifies natural disasters, displaces populations, and heightens the need for humanitarian assistance in affected regions.

As the Europe Peace Foundation, we firmly believe that combating deforestation is a vital step toward safeguarding our shared planet and promoting sustainable development. By preserving forests, we protect the habitat of countless species, mitigate climate change, and ensure the stability of ecosystems that are crucial for human well-being.

This, in turn, enables us to support and provide humanitarian aid to affected communities more effectively.

We stand in solidarity with President Lula da Silva and all those who advocate for environmental protection, conservation, and the rights of indigenous communities.

We urge governments, organizations, and individuals worldwide to join forces in the fight against deforestation, recognizing that only through collective action can we create a sustainable future where the Earth’s resources are preserved, human rights are respected, and humanitarian aid can effectively reach those in need.

Together, we can make a profound and lasting impact on the well-being of our planet and its inhabitants.
