Alessandra Korap Munduruku, 2023 Goldman Environmental Prize winner from Brazil
Alessandra Korap Munduruku organized community efforts to cancel mining applications by British mining company Anglo American in Brazil’s Amazon rainforest. In May 2021, the company agreed to publicly announce that it had withdrawn 27 research applications to mine inside Indigenous territories, including the Sawré Muybu Indigenous Territory, which contains more than 400,000 acres of rainforest. The decision protects a critically threatened area of the Amazon-the world’s largest rainforest and a globally significant carbon sink-from further mining and deforestation.
