As such lands have become scarce in other parts of Latin America, new Mennonite colonies began appearing in the Peruvian Amazon as of 2017.</p> <p>In October 2019, we first reported on the deforestation of 2,500 hectares across three colonies (Masisea, Vanderland, and Osterreich; <a href="https://www.maapprogram.org/mennonite/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MAAP #112</a>). A year later, in October 2020, this deforestation increased to 3,440 hectares (<a href="https://www.maapprogram.org/mennonites_peru/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MAAP #127</a>).</p> <p>By the end of 2021, two new colonies (Providencia and Chipiar) had appeared, and the total deforestation had reached 3,968 hectares (<a href="https://www.maapprogram.org/mennonites_peru-update/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MAAP #149</a>).</p> <p>Deforestation across all five colonies increased to 4,819 hectares by October 2022 (<a href="https://www.maapprogram.org/mennonites-peru-4800/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MAAP #166</a>) and 7,032 hectares by August 2023 (<a href="https://www.maapprogram.org/mennonites-peru/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MAAP #188</a>).</p> <p>Here, we update our findings, showing that deforestation across all five colonies has increased to <strong>8,660 hectares</strong> (21,400 acres), as of October 2024.</p> <p>Below, we illustrate the increase in Mennonite deforestation over the past eight years and show the pattern in each colony with <strong>satellite images</strong>.</p> <p>In addition, there is mounting evidence that this massive deforestation is <strong>illegal</strong>, with numerous ongoing investigations by the Peruvian government (see the <strong>Legal Summary</strong>, below).</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <div class="fitem-sep"></div> <div id="attachment_24760" class="thumbnail alignright"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-24760 " src="http://www.maapprogram.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Mennonite-deforestation-in-the-Peruvian-Amazon-2017-2024.png" alt="" width="775" height="479" srcset="http://www.maapprogram.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Mennonite-deforestation-in-the-Peruvian-Amazon-2017-2024.png 600w, http://www.maapprogram.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Mennonite-deforestation-in-the-Peruvian-Amazon-2017-2024-300x186.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px" /><div class="caption">Graph 1.
