Citizenship from below, a process through which marginalized peoples self-organize to create citizenship through claiming recognition and rights, is crucial to disaster recovery, resilience, and societal renewal and reportedly being drawn upon in responses to COVID-19. Brazilian Amazonia provides an arena to examine how marginalized people---disproportionately affected by COVID-19---are using citizenship to mitigate the pandemic's negative societal effects, supporting a bounce forward to greater resilience in the post-pandemic world. Amazonians engage in forest citizenship, which we define as struggles for recognition from different institutions, enabling claiming of rights from those institutions (e.g. territorial rights). We see COVID-19 as a rupture that forest citizenship can respond positively to, delivering societal renewal through improved democratic governance and political participation. FORTE assembles a multi-disciplinary team to understand and enhance forest peoples' collective action and transformational change in strengthening disaster resilience. We will advance empirical and theoretical understandings of forest citizenship---placing approaches to citizenship and resilience from Brazil, the US, and UK into dialogue---through a Trans-Atlantic research network supporting on-the-ground improvements in disaster resilience. Our objectives are:(1) quantify linkages between forest citizenship and COVID-19 resilience;(2) understand practices of forest citizenship in relation to COVID-19 experiences;(3) understand and disseminate learning on conditions for promoting forest citizenship and enhancing disaster resilience across Amazonia. We address these through three interlinked Work Packages (WPs): quantitative analysis of secondary health, governance and environmental data (entire Brazilian Amazon) (WP1), qualitative fieldwork in selected municipalities in Amazonas and Acre State (WP2), and action-research (WP3). Our research is based in an interdisciplinary and non-hierarchical 'team science,' which includes diverse voices, kinds of knowledge and value systems (including those of forest peoples), leading to better outcomes. Our ambition is for the project's legacy to be a Brazilian Amazonian society which is more equal, inclusive and resilient.

自下而上的公民身份是边缘化人群通过要求承认和权利而自我组织起来创造公民身份的过程，对灾后恢复、复原力和社会重建至关重要，据报道，在应对COVID-19时也被借鉴。巴西亚马逊河流域提供了一个竞技场，让我们审视受COVID-19影响不成比例的边缘化人群如何利用公民身份来减轻疫情的负面社会影响，支持疫情后世界的反弹，以增强复原力。亚马逊人参与森林公民权，我们将其定义为争取不同机构承认的斗争，使他们能够向这些机构主张权利（例如领土权利）。我们将COVID-19视为一种断裂，森林公民可以积极应对，通过改善民主治理和政治参与实现社会复兴。森林组织组建了一个多学科小组，以了解和加强森林人民在加强抗灾能力方面的集体行动和转型变革。我们将推进对森林公民身份的经验和理论理解-将巴西、美国和英国的公民身份和复原力方法纳入对话-通过跨大西洋研究网络支持实地改善灾害复原力。我们的目标是：（1）量化森林公民与COVID-19复原力之间的联系;（2）了解与COVID-19相关的森林公民实践;（3）了解并传播有关促进森林公民和提高亚马逊地区灾害复原力的条件的学习。我们通过三个相互关联的工作包（WP）来解决这些问题：二级卫生，治理和环境数据的定量分析（整个巴西亚马逊）（WP 1），在亚马逊和阿克里州（WP 2）选定的城市的定性实地考察，以及行动研究（WP 3）。我们的研究是基于跨学科和非等级的“团队科学”，其中包括不同的声音，各种知识和价值体系（包括森林人民），从而带来更好的结果。我们的目标是让该项目的遗产成为一个更加平等、包容和有弹性的巴西亚马逊社会。
