Nossa Senhora do Livramento Community, located in the Manaus region, Amazonas. The record drought that hit the Rio Negro in the summer of 2024 affected the entire community. Many residents went to stay with relatives in Manaus, leaving the town empty.

The world’s longest river is at its lowest levels ever due to devastating drought conditions. The dry conditions in Brazil’s Amazon rainforest, have left tributaries and the vital waterway parched, stranding river communities, affecting commerce and livelihoods.
