Community & Eco-Tourism Internship in Ecuador

Join a hands-on, personalized internship to help families & indigenous communities develop profitable tourism destinations that preserve local culture & ecosystems. The challenge: Guaranda is stunning, both in terms of landscapes & culture. However, it's one of Ecuador's least developed regions; 40% of rural people live in poverty & many are forced to cut down the last remaining native forest to farm or leave where they were born to find an income. Through this, the culture begins to deteriorate, and unique ecosystems are lost. Local people lack the education & resources to find innovative ways to make a dignified living that preserves their culture & landscapes. The solution: Community & eco-tourism have the potential to not only provide an income but also have the potential to regenerate native landscapes & celebrate indigenous cultures. By supporting communities & local businesses to develop their ideas, improve their spaces, create sustainable business models, and reach the right tourists for what they can offer, there is a huge potential to enrich the lives of people visiting Guaranda while changing the lives of local people for the better.
