Solinia is a Peruvian non-profit association based in Iquitos, Loreto Region, that develops conservation and protection programmes for aquatic mammals in the Peruvian Amazon basin. Its focus is river dolphins, particularly the pink river dolphin (boto, Inia geoffrensis) and the tucuxi (Sotalia fluviatilis). Its mission covers biodiversity conservation in the Amazon basin, and it works with local communities, including those in the Tamshiyacu area of Loreto, on awareness and protection of river dolphins. Its work includes species monitoring and the Action Plan for Peru. In 2024, Solinia Belgium, a Belgian non-profit association, was created to help find sponsors for Solinia's work.
