CROWDFUNDING: AeroSarayaku Emergency Services

SUPPORTS AN AMAZON COMMUNITY AIRLINE THAT PROVIDES A KEY BRIDGE TO PROTECT THE FOREST, SAVE LIVES AND RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTALISM

AERO SARAYAKU is a community company of the Original Kichwa People of Sarayaku.

Sarayaku is a community of around 2,500 people in the heart of the Ecuadorian Amazon jungle that for decades has been the protagonist of activist movements, awareness and environmental protection worldwide; inspiring other communities throughout the Amazon to rise up and join forces to expose the injustice and environmental degradation caused.

In 2012, Sarayaku set a precedent by taking the Government of Ecuador before the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, where the court found that the Ecuadorian government flouted Sarayaku's right to free, prior and informed consent (FPIC) regarding the exploitation of oil and resources on the ancestral land of their peoples. This precedent is now found internationally.

Sarayaku received significant compensation at the judgment and used the funds to create his own airline to serve and help lives and strengthen community efforts.

Evacuations, emergency transfers, mobilization of equipment and supplements in case of natural catastrophes are part of the support that Aero Sarayaku has been offering for several years in response to the complete lack of state attention in these cases.

Now it will be necessary replace in a few more months the engine of the Cessna T206H of Aero-Sarayaku and we need support to help in this effort. Aero Sarayaku's budget contemplates the full-time operations of its pilots, mechanics and management staff, but does not cover provisions for major mechanical replacements.
For this we need your help and donations.

Your support will ensure that the indispensable flights of AeroSarayaku continue to support the efforts of this Native People for education and conservation of the Amazon rainforest, and will guarantee a rapid response essential in the continuity of emergency evacuation flights and life flights for the people. of Sarayaku and other communities in the tropical forest.

AERO-SARAYAKUIndigenously owned and operated, operates two Cessna aircraft as a courier service for passengers and supplies, providing a vital link to this remote community.
In the same way, Aero Sarayaku is in charge of the optimal maintenance of the runway located in Sarayaku, which is used as one of the Emergency runways when Shell's "Río Amazonas" airport is closed.
