The Pada Kera cabilido in Colombia is one of our Friends. We’re really excited about their land buyback!
We’ve been friends with the Pada Kera cabilido in Colombia since we began. Cipriano and Leyson specialized in camera trapping, reforestation, and did the technical carbon studies on the ground.
We are delighted that they are the prototype land buyback in the Tierra program. They have been displaced for a number of years because they were traditionally a nomadic group, and they really deserved it.
