Instituto Socioambiental

"ISA was established on April 22, 1994, by a group of people with a significant professional background and experiences in the struggle for social and environmental rights. ISA has incorporated the material and non-material heritage amassed during the 15 years’ experience of several knowledgeable organizations in the indigenous rights issues in Brazil, such as the Ecumenical Documentation and Information Center’s Brazilian Indigenous Peoples Program, and the Indigenous Rights Nucleus (NDI) of Brasília." [1]

In 2007 they received a small amount of funding from USAID, but obtained most funding (just under $1 million) from ICCO. The Packard Foundation also gave them $108,000. [2]
