Disney has supported The Alto Mayo Protected Forest (AMPF) project, located in Peru, for nearly a decade. From its early stages to the success it is today, this unique project demonstrates how conservation and helping people can go hand in hand.

Located in the Peruvian Amazon, the 182,000-hectare AMPF faces high deforestation pressures from unsustainable agricultural practices and illegal logging.

With Disney’s support, Conservation International (CI) launched programs to reduce community reliance on the forest as an economic resource, while also building local capacity for better management of the AMPF.
