Why we work with them
This 500 year old Kitchwa community realized that eco tourism is an excellent modern alternative for local development and improving quality of life, while still preserving traditional activities and, most importantly, for conserving nature. The community lives within a 200 square area of the Yasuni National Park and in the name of conservation gave up their legal right to hunting and fishing meaning area is now thriving and teaming with wildlife. Along with their use of renewable energy and commitment to community development, this is definitely one of our favourite lodges.
