Brazil, Reimagined?

Episode 3: “Never Again Without Us.”

“Never Again a Brazil Without Us,” were the last words of Sônia Guajajara’s speech when she took office as the minister leading the 1st Ministry of Indigenous People in Brazil.

A unique moment in the history of the country. Celebrated as an important milestone in the fight of indigenous people in Brazil. For their lives and lands. For territorial rights; for the honouring of their cultures.

Through the voices of indigenous leaders, civil servants and representatives of NGOs, this new episode of Brazil Reimagined provides insight into the situation of indigenous people in Rondônia. A region where indigenous territories have increasingly become under pressure as a consequence of agricultural expansion.

What changed over the past years? And what might change in the upcoming? Are the tides indeed turning for indigenous people, their cultures being valued in the fight against climate change and for protection of the Amazon Forest?

The second episode of this series takes you to Rondônia, in the west of Brazil. Situated in the so-called ‘Arc of Deforestation’, it is known for being one of the regions with the highest rates of deforestation, for invasions in indigenous territories, for conflicts in the countryside.

But is also the region where I encountered and found many inspirational people and projects that resist, reforest, reconstruct and reimagine the region. Despite the difficulties, beyond the political reality. The first episode dedicated to this region takes you exactly on this journey: from the history of deforestation and conflicts to reimagination nowadays.

Few national elections received as much global attention last year as the ones organised in Brazil. With the future of the Amazon at stake, the tight race between Jair Bolsonaro and Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva seemed to have turned into an international affair.

Lula’s inauguration came with the vow to overhaul environmental and territorial policies. Within this ‘zero deforestation’ and sustainable development strategy, civil society actors, previously silenced by Bolsonaro, are promised to play a key role.

Beyond the mediatised political transition, this series gives voice to civil society actors and populations who are directly impacted by and actively challenged the country’s territorial and environmental management. From urban space to indigenous territories, from agricultural landscapes to protected areas.
