WHERE WE WORK.
Our work is grounded in long-term partnerships with Indigenous communities across Ecuador, Colombia, and Peru. From the Amazon rainforest to the Andes, we support place-based initiatives that grow from the land and cultures they belong to—focusing on local leadership, cultural continuity, and ecological resilience.
OUR PROJECTS.
We work hand in hand with Indigenous communities and local organizations to protect biodiversity, strengthen cultural heritage, and create sustainable futures. Below are a few examples of the projects we support – each rooted in collaboration and long-term impact.
Awka Wasi - Living in Ancestral Territory
Land restitution, the protection of the Amazon, and the preservation of living cultures.
Awka Wasi is an Indigenous-led initiative by Inga families in the Putumayo region of Colombia. The project focuses on reclaiming and stewarding ancestral territories, creating a protected living space in the rainforest, fostering regenerative self-sufficiency with local resources, and providing space for traditional ceremonies and intercultural exchange. Awka Wasi connects cultural revitalization with sustainable living in harmony with nature.
Jaguar Corridor Collaboration – Protecting Biodiversity, Sharing Knowledge
A network for reforestation, ecological research, and environmental education in sacred territories.
In partnership with Fundación Wild Colombia and Indigenous communities, this project strengthens biodiversity through targeted reforestation and monitoring of threatened species—especially the jaguar, regarded as a guardian of balance. Observation programs, participatory research, environmental education, and cultural activities raise awareness for the protection of these habitats and create new opportunities for nature-based tourism and local economies.
Kay Se –Animated Ancestral Stories
Sharing ancestral Kichwa knowledge through animation and digital storytelling
Kay Se is a creative media project that brings the stories and myths of Indigenous communities to life in animated form. Developed in close collaboration with elders, artists, and young creatives, it produces audiovisual works that preserve cultural heritage and make it accessible worldwide. Kay Se fosters cultural identity, intergenerational dialogue, and global visibility of Indigenous worldviews.
