Neste episódio conversamos com Felipe Borman, diretor executivo da Fundación Sobrevivencia Cofán, sediada no Equador. A Azimuth é parceira da FSC desde 2022, tendo apoiado o seu Programa de Guardas Florestais. Este programa protege mais de 400 000 hectares de floresta amazónica e andina.

Mais recentemente, a Azimuth apoiou o projeto Lifeboat Garden, que tem como objetivo preservar o conhecimento tradicional sobre plantas e práticas agrícolas dos Cofán. Apoiámos também a realização de obras na sede da FSC em Quito, onde famílias Cofán e guardas florestais ficam alojados para iniciativas de educação e formação.



Esperamos que esta conversa o inspire a saber mais sobre os Cofán e o trabalho crucial que a FSC está a levar a cabo no Equador.

For our latest episode we're in conversation with Felipe Borman, executive director of the Fundación Sobrevivencia Cofán in Ecuador. Azimuth has been a partner of FSC since 2022, supporting their Park Guards Program, which protects over 400,000 hectares of Amazon and Andean forest.

More recently, we’ve supported the Lifeboat Garden project, which works to preserve traditional Cofán plant knowledge and farming practices, as well as improvements to FSC's headquarters in Quito, where Cofán families and park guards gather for education and training.

We hope this conversation inspires you to learn more about the Cofán and the crucial work the FSC is doing in Ecuador.

During the tenth edition of FOLIO – Óbidos International Literary Festival, which had “Borders" as its main theme, we had the privilege of speaking with artist Denilson Baniwa, from the Baniwa People of the Upper Rio Negro, in Amazonas, Brazil.

Another highlight of Denilson's visit to Portugal was the opening of his first solo exhibition in Lisbon. "Contra-Feitiço" (Counter-Spell), on display at Galeria Quadrum until February 15, 2026, includes new works created during his stay in Portugal, and was curated by Ritó Natálio and the Terra Batida platform.

Winner of the 2019 PIPA award and one of the curators of the Brazilian Pavilion at the 2024 Venice Biennale, Denilson Baniwa has become an essential voice in the Brazilian contemporary art scene. During this conversation, we touch on some of the multiple directions opened up by his work, which moves in the spaces between technology and ancestry, protest and poetry, the Rio Negro and the world.
