Kapawi Ecolodge was represented by Juan Carlos Garcia, who pitched a community ecotourism summit so the Achuar people of Ecuador can collectively plan how to expand sustainable tourism activities in their communities for years to come.
Kapawi Ecolodge is a 100% indigenous community-owned (and 100% solar-powered) enterprise in the Amazon Rainforest that offers conscious and responsible travelers the opportunity to engage in authentic cultural experiences with people of the Ecuadorian Amazon, in an unspoiled rainforest setting while directly supporting the sustainable development of the Achuar indigenous nation.
We are proud to say that Kapawi took first place in the judges’ vote, winning $5,000 to fund their important work. Check out their beautiful Instagram to be inspired by the beauty and impact of Kapawi.
