Dear friends,
100 days have passed since Survival International asked me to narrate an astonishing film of an uncontacted tribe on the Peru-Brazil border. Millions of people saw it and, after the global outcry, Peru's government promised action against the illegal loggers who put uncontacted tribes at risk.
100 days on, loggers are still there, and the tribes are still in danger. This is a unique opportunity to form a global campaign to protect the lands and lives of uncontacted tribes.

We need to tackle illegal loggers and gold miners by taking concrete action. Just last month, satellite images caught ranchers red-handed destroying the forests of uncontacted Indians in Paraguay. Within the last two weeks, oil company ConocoPhillips was forced to withdraw from a project which would have invaded the lands of uncontacted tribes in Peru.
Your support can fund the recording of eye-witness testimonies, ensure liaison with local indigenous organizations, buy more satellite pictures, press for cases to be taken up by the UN and Inter-American Court, and help gather the evidence to confront governments and corporations. The momentum is with us... now is the time to step up the pressure.
Please give to Survival's campaign for uncontacted tribes now. No amount is too small.

Yours,

Gillian Anderson
