Activists joined the Munduruku on a sacred section of the Tapajós River to send a clear message to the world: "Damn the dam. Keep the Tapajós River alive". Together, they unfurled a 20X30 meter banner demanding an end to the Tapajós dams project. The protest coincides with International Day of Forests, celebrated globally on 21 March.

Mantenha o Rio Tapajós vivo”. Segurando faixas em diversas línguas, eles protestaram, ao lado de ativistas do Greenpeace, contra a construção de barragens no rio que sustenta sua cultura e modo de vida. Ao todo, há 43 hidrelétricas previstas para a bacia do Tapajós, sendo cinco já planejadas. A maior delas é a de São Luiz do Tapajós, próxima a Itaituba, no Pará, que, se construída, vai afetar a vida de povos indígenas e ribeirinhos, além de destruir uma área de intensa biodiversidade na Amazônia.
