The Mesoamerican Alliance of Peoples and Forests is a Central American regional organization dedicated to promoting the rights of forest-dwelling Indigenous peoples and local communities. It is made up of national organizations who control significant areas of forests in the region. RFUS has worked with AMPB over the years to train community-based territorial monitors and mappers as well as to support regional and international advocacy. AMPB is also a member of the Global Alliance of Territorial Communities.
