CentroAmazónicoPerú

The Centro Amazónico de Antropología y Aplicación Práctica (CAAAP) is a Peruvian nonprofit civil association founded in 1974 by bishops from the country’s jungle region. It serves vulnerable populations in the Amazon, with particular attention to Indigenous peoples. Its work and resources focus on the Peruvian Amazon, the people who live there, Amazonian Indigenous communities, key regional challenges, and the Amazonian Church.

CAAAP shares information and perspectives through its current affairs coverage, including news, interviews, and opinion articles. Its website also features publications and research resources from its documentation center, known as CENDOC. These materials include academic articles, documents, infographics, and new publications, as well as the Revista Amazonía Peruana. Image galleries offer additional visual material related to the region. Together, these resources make CAAAP a source of information about Amazonian communities and issues, while its stated mission centers on service to vulnerable populations. The organization provides contact information and weekday office hours for people seeking to reach it.
