Madeira River
This is the first issue of a set of three Learn posters produced with support from the UK government's Department for International Development (DFID). They're designed to help students build their understanding of the links between poverty and the environment.
The first poster explores the relationship between people and the environment in the Amazon, with a particular focus on the Madeira River. The poster explores the link between poverty and the environment within the context of climate change.
