Wild Hope: Does Nature Have Rights?

A new series that crisscrosses the globe to spotlight the changemakers who are restoring and protecting the natural world.

Ecuador is one of the most biodiverse places on the planet, yet its wild spaces are also among the most threatened. In 2008, the country became the first nation in the world to enshrine the “rights of nature” in its constitution—granting wild species their own legal rights to exist. Today, conservationists are putting that powerful tool to the test as they battle to save the country’s biodiversity.
