O Rio Amazonas, para mim, ele representa um organismo vivo que conecta a pessoa, conecta culturas, saberes. Toda a essência da floresta tá nos rios, tá na dinâmica dos rios. Toda a troca que ocorre na Amazônia, desde as trocas gasosas até as trocas culturais, a troca de saberes é movimentada pelos rios.

Então, eu acredito que toda a sociedade deve olhar com muito carinho para o futuro dos rios, porque eles são chave para a manutenção da floresta no futuro. Por muito tempo, tentaram encontrar soluções para conservação da Amazônia em lugares externos, quando na verdade as comunidades locais vêm interagindo com a floresta, com a biodiversidade, por centenas ou milhares de anos.

No nosso projeto, a ideia é tentar entender como as comunidades locais podem coexistir com a megafauna amazônica, que são os grandes animais. Aí, eu tô falando do jacaré-açu, da Ariranha, do Boto, do pirarucu, da Tartaruga. São espécies muito importantes, emblemáticas, que são importantes tanto para as culturas locais como para a economia local e que foram sobre-exploradas nas últimas décadas, não tiveram suas populações reduzidas.

E agora, através de alguns arranjos de base comunitária, essas espécies estão ressurgindo. E a gente quer entender quais são os mecanismos pelos quais as comunidades locais podem recuperar as populações dessas espécies de grande porte.
