We promote permaculture and healing.

We have been collaborating with another organization called la Clínica Ambiental in the northern part of the Amazon. For the past13 years, la Clínica Ambiental has worked with people affected by oil exploitation and the glyphosate spraying in the lands at the border with Colombia. 
After 30 years of court action, Chevron Texaco still hasn't taken responsibility for the oil spills that caused a social and environmental disaster in the Amazon. The impact of this catastrophe was so harmful, it is known as the ‘Chernobyl of the jungle’.

After realizing that neither Chevron Texaco nor the Ecuadorian government were going to respond to the damages caused, let alone do something about it, la Clínica Ambiental took matters into their own hands by aiming to restoring the environment, the health of the people, as well as the region’s social fabric. 
‘Los Guardianes de Semillas’ (the Seed’s Guardians) have been training people on permaculture in all topics related to the soil, water, and food. 
Kausana supports la Clínica Ambiental by offering healing therapies to restore human health and the social fabric through workshops on topics like: nutrition, food as medicine, ancestral Chinese and native medicine from the Amazon and the Andes, yoga, meditation, and personal development.

Meanwhile, in the central-southern region of the Amazon, home to Los Yapas botanical park, we have been involved in environmental reparation for the past 13 years. Our social work has been focused on environmental education with children and adolescents, and on supporting indigenous women in their own projects focused on environmental conservation and protection of indigenous cultures.
