- Guisel Marworno and Wagner Karipuna traveled down the Bobonaza River in a motorized canoe to Sarayaku, where the Brazilian Indigenous leaders sought help.
- Petrobras began exploring for offshore oil last year near their coastal territories; the explorer is state-owned.
Why it matters: Petrobras began offshore exploration last year near the coastal territories of Brazilian Indigenous communities, and two leaders have already traveled to Sarayaku to seek help. The material consequence is direct intercommunity engagement around a state-backed oil project close to those communities’ territories.
