Instituto Cordilheira’s fundamental aim is to work in defense of the environment, of cultural heritage, of the rights of nature, of citizenship, of human rights, and of the promotion of collective, diffuse, and homogeneous individual goods and rights, while considering new paradigms in times of climate emergency.
IC works towards a new economy and society that value nature, ecosystem regeneration, investment in science, technology, and ancestral practices of indigenous peoples with a view to overcome the mineral dependency, and for a justice system that truly fulfills its role in ensuring that violations stop, damages are fully repaired, and perpetrators are held effectively accountable.
