About this grant

International Finance and the Amazon Program, a project of Amazon Watch, Inc., monitors and works to influence extractive industry and infrastructure projects financed by international financial institutions and private banks. This grant increase will allow Amazon Watch to meet time-sensitive and urgent programmatic needs for the coming year. The grantee will hire independent consultants to provide engineering and other technical analyses for key energy and infrastructure projects planned for the Andean Amazon region. As well, more in-depth analyses and background studies on large-scale infrastructure development in the Andean Amazon region will also be undertaken.
