Projects
for Peace - Ecuador
Projects for Peace is a non-profit, non-religious, all volunteer based
incentive, which believes in the overwhelming power of many distinct,
but equal voices to initiate positive change in the developing world.
Formed in 2004, with the primary goal of uniting small community based
projects in Ecuador, we strive to improve the quality of life and
provide technical assistance and education to women, indigenous groups,
and other disenfranchised minorities. Through the use of new technologies,
we empower the creative minds behind newly energized forms of traditional
products and activities. Our projects concentrate on providing long
term benefits for all stake holders, while protecting the community's
cultural and environmental uniqueness.
