Detailed programme

Take part in an environmental conservation and reforestation initiative in San Antonio de Las Aradas, in the province of Loja.

The project includes the implementation of a pilot reforestation and conservation project in the research phase, the organisation of information workshops on climate change and the importance of conservation and reforestation, the holding of practical workshops on the reforestation of indigenous species, the establishment of English language courses, and the coordination of planting activities to ensure the proper organisation and monitoring of actions in the field.

You will work approximately 4 to 8 hours per day, Monday to Friday. During your free time, you can go hiking or visit neighbouring villages to discover the coffee plantations. In addition, if you are curious, the city of Loja is a 2.5-hour drive away. You can spend a weekend there to explore it. It has museums, parks, organises events, etc.

Our partner is an Ecuadorian foundation and organisation that harmoniously integrates human, economic and environmental resources into concrete projects and actions, seeking to establish ecologically and economically sustainable habitats. The Foundation was created according to the ideology of its founders, who aimed to propose new alternatives for society as a whole. These alternatives translate into the development of a popular economy within each family, thus enabling the most disadvantaged populations to progress. And, of course, without neglecting the management and preservation of natural resources, a guarantee of dignity and sovereignty for all.
