Amazonas, Peru
Peru
Description
While the region of Amazonas has historically low deforestation rates, it faces several challenges in forest management. The region hosts several native communities(including Awajun, Aguaruna and Wampis) that depend on timber and non-timber forest resources, as well as the provision of ecosystem services to maintain their livelihoods.
Amazonas has taken steps to improve the management of its forests by creating a Regional Environmental Authority through Regional Ordinance No. 327- REGIONAL GOVERNMENT AMZONAS / CR, dated 17 May 2013, and implementing a Regional Conservation System adopted by Regional Ordinance No. 235 – REGIONAL GOVERNMENT AMAZONAS / CR, dated 05 June 20 09. However, there are pending challenges such as the design of a forest conservation strategy at the regional level, as well as improving management for the sustainable use of forest resources (especially forests in native communities), and increasing external financing through international cooperation to support these initiatives.

Drivers of Deforestation
There are no official studies on the factors that drive deforestation in Amazonas. According to the monitoring project of the Peruvian Amazon, during 2017 in the district of Nieva- the area with the highest level of deforestation in Amazonas – it is pointed out that the cause of deforestation is agricultural activity.

Laws, Policies & Strategies
Strategies and Policies
Amazonas Regional Climate Change Strategy (2017): Includes climate vulnerability, identifies sources of greenhouse gas emissions and proposes governance needed to carry out the strategy and corresponding Implementation Plan. Strategy is aligned with Peru National Climate Change Strategy and Ministry of Environment.
Regional Plan of Environmental Action 2014-2021– The plan is an instrument of long-term regional environmental planning, formulated from the regional environmental diagnosis and based on the axes of the National Environmental Policy: Conservation and sustainable use of resources and biological diversity, integral management of environmental quality, environmental governance and international environmental commitments and opportunities. Contains the strategic axes, objectives, indicators, actions, baseline of 2012, goals to 2017 and 2021, as well as the scope and responsible institutions. Each of these goals can be achieved through strategic actions and activities that will be carried out by the responsible entities and the society as a whole in the Regional and Local Government, which will be evaluated through environmental indicators, under the supervision of the Regional Environmental Authority.
Regional Environmental Policy

Institutional Framework
Regional Environmental Authority- In 2013, Regional Ordinance 327-2013- GRA / CR approves the creation of the Amazon Regional Environmental Authority “on environmental matters, territorial planning and sustainable management of natural resources” with its line organizers such as: The Executive Directorate of Natural Resources, the Executive Directorate of Environmental Management and the Executive Directorate of Forest and Wildlife Management . In addition, it approves and incorporates Administrative documents of the Regional Environmental Authority: the Organization and Functions Regulation and the Staff Assignment. As a complementary provision, the Ordinance also details that the composition of the Authority Regional Environmental comes from the merger of the Sub Management of Natural Resources and the Environment and the Forestry Directorate and of Wildlife.
Regional Agrarian Directorate –The Regional Agrarian Directorate through Management Regional Economic Development has a fundamental role in promoting agriculture not linked to deforestation expressed in its institutional mission: “promote development of agricultural producers organized in value chains or productive chains and contribute to improving the conditions of life of our rural inhabitants through activities of promotion, training and dissemination of statistical information agrarian and achieve sustainable agriculture both economically, social and environmental”.
Zoning & Spatial Planning
In 2010, the Economic Ecological Zoning of Amazon approved with the Regional Ordinance 200-2007-GRACR at a macrozoning level. This document analyzes the biophysical features of the Region, the current socioeconomic status, the potential and limitations of the territory and its natural resources, the zoning of the region and the recommendations for the formulation of policies and planning plans territorial in the region. The Amazon ZEE declares that 65.56 percent of the territory are protection and conservation zones ecological while 16.19 percent are productive zones. The study was developed at the level of macrozoning, using a work scale of 1: 250,000 and a publication scale of 1: 500,000.
Engagement & Participation with Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities
According to the Instituto de Bien Comun (2016), Amazonas has 54 farming communities, of which 2 are located in Bagua, 11 in Bongará, 23 in Chachapoyas, 17 in Luya and 1 in Utcubamba , of which 52 are recognized and titled remaining pending 1 in Utcubamba and 1 in Bongará . On the other hand, according to the Ministry of Culture (2012) there are 14,678 km2 associated with indigenous communities, representing 37.4% of the Amazonas territory and of which 171 native communities are titled.
For its part, the Regional Government has in its organization the Sub-office of Native and Peasant Communities under the structure of the Economic Development Management, whose purpose is to organize meetings and committees with district governments and representatives of local communities; as well as, the presentation of the regional proposal on the territories of these communities for their subsequent participatory implementation.
