He writes this exhortation to the whole world to encourage great respect for Amazonian culture, indigenous peoples, its rich natural heritage, and the flourishing of the Church in the Amazon. The exhortation builds on the synodal process the pope initiated to address the sufferings and inheritance of the Amazon region with its nearly 34 million people, covering nine countries.
