At the invitation of the royal family, EDS is accompanying the indigenous Baré women Sara and Valcimara to the UAE Sustainability Week, one of the biggest events on the subject in the world, thanks to the Zayed Sustainability Prize received by the organization in 2023.
Mother and daughter, who live in an isolated community in the Amazon, benefited from the Zayed Sustainability Prize and little Sara regained her sight, thanks to cataract surgery performed by EDS volunteers at the Mobile Surgical Center set up in Alto Rio Negro.
Now they will have the opportunity to amplify the voices of indigenous peoples around the world.
