Exhibition on the Pantanal at the European Parliament
Our most recent public event was a powerful and urgent exhibition entitled "Pantanal: our inheritance and our legacy" on the Esplanade Solidarność of the European Parliament in Brussels, from the 16th until the 27th of September. This exhibition used breathtaking photography to shed light on the world's largest tropical wetland, the Pantanal - which spans Brazil, Bolivia, and Paraguay - and the critical importance of preserving this unique ecosystem.
Highlights of the Exhibition
Explore rich biodiversity: Discover the exceptional wildlife of the Pantanal, home to remarkable species, including endangered giant otters, the world's largest parrot, the hyacinth macaw, and the world's highest concentration of jaguars.
Understand the threats: Learn about the threats facing the Pantanal, including devastating fires and destructive human activities, and the ongoing struggle of local communities and Indigenous peoples who depend on the wetland for their livelihoods and cultural heritage.
Reflect on the future: The exhibition encouraged viewers to reflect on the legacy we will leave for future generations: will it be one of destruction and loss, or one of protection and sustainability for this vital ecosystem?
