The World Rainforest Movement (WRM) is an international initiative that aims to contribute to struggles, reflections, and political actions of forest-dependent peoples, indigenous, peasants, and other communities in the global South.

Its main role is to support struggles that defend the collective rights and self-determination of indigenous peoples and peasant communities who live in and with the forest over their territories, lives, and cultures.
