THE FUTURE

It is important that the connection with the past and future is not broken, so children and younger people are encouraged to learn both in an informal and formal way.

Young people accompany elders on working trips and in this way knowledge is passed on.

Storytelling and games are encouraged. More modern ways such as drawing, colouring and reading are also encouraged so that everyone can learn about the wider world.

The Waracaba is here to Stay by Sachi

Brought to you by children hoping to bring a better world for animals.

I was seven years old when I started doing my part to save the waracaba’s home and I am sure that with your help, we can do a lot more for this bird.

The waracaba is a rare bird that lives in the rainforest of South America. It lives in its nice, green forest home. The waracaba can live high up in the trees, as well as low down on the ground. It is a rare bird to see. This bird makes an excellent pet so everyone wants to have a pet waracaba. This is harming its population and I for one, am getting fed up. Only you can help me by speaking out because this lovely bird cannot speak our language but can only speak the language of the forest. By preserving the environment you are saving the home of the waracaba and many other forest animals. If you can help to save the waracaba’s home, this lovely bird might stay around for a little bit longer.

If we keep destroying the forest at the rate we are now, its home will be destroyed sooner than we think. Can you help to stop the destruction of its home? Please!

The Waracaba might be the bird of now but without your help, it might not be the bird of tomorrow.
