In order to raise awareness about climate change, we carry out activities in a local community in favor of the environment, we promote research, and we hold an annual forum and publication of the Colca Tikariy magazine (Colca Flourishes).
These are the questions that guide our initiative.
- How can we protect our environment from climate change?
- What local and global actions can be taken to reduce the impact of climate change?
- How can you reduce greenhouse gas emissions in your local community?
- How do I help save the Earth?
- What can I personally do about global warming?
Our activities focus on campaigning to produce behavior change, produce products and food locally, promote local solutions for access to sustainable energy and transformation, implementation of the collaborative economy
