Participant program
 
 
Experiencing the Amazonia. Living with amazon communities as a way to learn cultural differences and improve your spanish.

An important aspect about this program is the fact that we coordinate the visit of participants who come from several parts of the world. If you decide to choose our program you will be sharing the everyday-life in amazon communities while we are developing our core project.

This approach gives participants better opportunities to interact with locals. As a participant, you gain a full insight about local communities, and take advantage of our previous contact done with local authorities, and services in Iquitos.

Participants may pursue academic, professional, or general interests, or a combination of these (i.e.: botany, health topics and/or photography). Our program allows participants to experience, and learn about the amazon rainforest while taking an active role in helping to implement activities such as:
