The main objective in producing this collection of 60 thematic maps that make up the Atlas of Hydroclimatic Vulnerability of the
Amazon Region, is to contribute to knowledge and understanding of the Amazon, examining aspects related to the region’s
socioeconomic and physical vulnerability and exposure to extreme climatic events such as droughts and floods.
To create the Atlas, we worked primarily with data provided by the eight member countries of the Amazon Cooperation Treaty
Organization (ACTO), Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Peru, Surinam, and Venezuela.
