The Inga Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to reducing the clearance of rainforest by slash and burn agriculture as practised in the tropics by desperate peasant farmers. The primary goal of the IF is empowerment and autonomy for these campesinos, to allow them to develop a productive holding which can not only sustain them nutritionally, but can lift them beyond mere subsistence level into a commercial strata by producing cash crops to enrich their lives materially. And thus, the precious rainforest is saved. The reason the tropical rainforest is essential is due to its huge bio-diversity and role in carbon sequestration. UK Registered Charity 1124688
