Savimbo wisdom superior to Sylvera extrapolations n March 2023 I met Drea Burbank during the Community of Practice group from Grace Rachmany. As I have been following the carbon credit community of Sylvera, I have a critical eye for businesses claiming their ability to measure sequestered carbon. From Chris Lang of the REDD Monitor I have learned that Sylvera is not capable of evaluating their member organizations as they claim. The Savimbo paradigm of relying on ancient time tested indigenous wisdom for establishing biodiversity credits, or even carbon credit ratings is superior to the superficial extrapolations that the Sylvera community count on.

A powerful economical & cultural paradigm shift! In my perception, Savimbo is creating with their work, a new economical & cultural paradigm to the benefit of the communities of Putumayo Colombia, as well as the benefit of all of us, through the great work of conservation of the jungle! I had the great opportunity to be in the jungle as an attendee and as a host of our retreats with the sacred medicine given by Taita Fernando, Taita Leonidas and Taita Avelino, twice. First time at the beginning of the year, and once again in September of this year! The progress I’ve witnessed in the work Drea and the entire team at Savimbo is doing, is really impressive! The amount of enthusiasm and motivation for their work, the commitment and diligence for the jungle and its conservation, the generosity and kindness with which I’ve been received, it’s so infectious and inspiring! I am forever grateful and looking forward to support as much as possible! I kindly invite you to take a look at the great work Savimbo is doing for our planet & its people, and contribute the best you can!
