The Big Picture
EcoLogic Development Fund helps poor, rural communities to become environmental stewards by providing them with the tools they need to manage their natural resources and improve their living conditions.
Partnering with the Association of the 48 Cantons of Totonicapán Ecologic hopes to conserve and restore forests in micro-watershed areas with the goal of preserving biodiversity and protecting water sources. At the same time, we hope to establish a sustainable process, through which these communities can become effective stewards of their natural resources. Project activities include forest conservation and management and traditional memory.
