Zuid Amerika

The Guiana Shield Media Project is an environmental media project with a focus on the Guiana Shield region of South America. The Guiana Shield stretches from northeastern Brazil, through French Guiana, Suriname, Guyana, Venezuela and eastern Colombia, up to the Andes. Inhabited by many indigenous groups, the region has become the focus of attention for several international environmental organisations, and is considered exceptional as almost 90% of the terrain remains in a pristine state.
