Sônia Guajajara: The Guardian of the Amazon

Sônia Guajajara grew up in a small Indigenous village in the Amazon where generations of people cared for the land. Sônia witnessed the impact of deforestation on her beautiful home and decided to venture out of her village to answer her call to service. Sônia has since become a Champion of the Earth, an advocate for women, and Brazil’s first minister for Indigenous peoples. Listen in to learn more about Sônia Guajajara, a voice for the people and the land of the Amazon. This podcast is a production of Rebel Girls.
