Communities in the Cerrado Biome, Brazil - Clipreel
Clipreel shot between August 2017 and June 2018, showing people in the Cerrado in their daily life activities while using various local natural resources to produce food, handicrafts and other commodities.
The Cerrado biome is a very diverse and vast tropical savanna ecoregion of Brazil. It contains forests, plains, savannas and huge amount of natural resources.
For centuries, local traditional populations have been living in its fields and plains without destroying the natural landscape, sourcing their livelihood from all its richness. But the agribusiness expansion movement is risking its survival and the availability of natural resources, causing conflicts over land and even water.
In original language:
Comunidades e cultura do Cerrado
O Cerrado é diverso! Nele há vegetação de florestas, campos e savanas. Há séculos, populações tradicionais ocupam seus campos e chapadas sem destruir a paisagem natural, aproveitando de toda a riqueza de frutos. Mas o movimento de expansão do agronegócio vêm colocando em risco sua sobrevivência e a disponibilidade de recursos naturais, gerando conflitos por terra e até por água.
