La lucha por la vida en la Amazonía venezolana: “Donde hay una mina se genera un círculo de pobreza”

Indigenous peoples in the Venezuelan Amazon face devastation from large extractive companies, according to reporter Miguel Angel Malavia for Vida Nueva.

Malavia reports that these mining operations create a cycle of poverty within the region. The Amazon rainforest, which spans seven million square kilometers across nine countries, includes territory in Venezuela where these companies impact local communities.
