KIF SOUTH AMERICA

OVERVIEW

South America ranks fourth in area and fifth in population with estimated at more than 423 million people. South America's Amazon rainforest represents over half of the planet's remaining rainforests, and comprises the largest and most biodiverse tract of tropical rainforest in the world, with an estimated 390 billion individual trees divided into 16,000 species.

At a national level in South America, KIF Global has established our national chapter KIF Brazil in 2019 in São Paulo, the most populous city in Brazil, the Americas, the Western Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. In 2020, KIF Colombia was formed in Bogotá, Colombia, the hometown of KIF Global Co-Founder.

Each chapter is independently led by highly motivated community leaders and exclusively manages its own territory. Our national chapters work closely with its Global Headquarters and country offices of our global partners such as United Nations agencies and international NGOs.

At a global level, KIF Global has created KIF South America, the South America Regional Committee that plays a key role as a regional platform to strategically unify and expand South American national chapters and initiatives, including Amazon Habitat, the Amazon Rainforest conservation initiative.

 

KIF South America is a South America regional committee of KIF Global. The purpose of KIF South America is to provide a regional platform for new and existing national chapters throughout South America and for KIF Global to work together efficiently in improving chapter governance, communications and initiatives as well as strengthening regional partnerships in an inclusive and unified approach.
