The Learning Platform was developed in the framework of the All Eyes on the Amazon Program (AEA – more information below), with the goal of promoting collective learning, through sharing knowledge and skills; the engagement of AEA’s partners and allies, strengthening interaction among them; and the sustainability and impact of the actions promoted by the Program’s partner organizations, generating more visibility, scalability and support to the initiatives led by Amazonian organizations.
The AEA Learning Platform was idealized by Hivos in 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic. Following the arrival of the pandemic and constant interactions with our partners and allies, the need for a virtual space for exchanging knowledge and strengthening skills was reinforced.
From then on, Hivos has led the collaborative development of the AEA Learning Platform based on contributions of the Program’s main partners, mainly Indigenous and local organizations from the Brazilian, Ecuadorian and Peruvian Amazon Basin.
