Our Indigenous partners—the Achuar and Sápara people of the Sacred Headwaters region—have invited us to journey to the rainforest and learn from them so that we may carry their teachings and message home and share their dream of a thriving, just, and sustainable world.

They live interdependently with the forest and work with its plants for food, medicine, and shelter. In order to continue their way of life, they must protect this area and keep it free from extractive industries. By going on a Pachamama Journey, you support the Achuar and Sápara to continue as the guardians of the rainforest.

When the spirit of nature is maintained in its healthy, thriving state, the Achuar people say that Arutam—the power of the forest—is alive. To be in the presence of a forest whose spirit is intact is a uniquely visceral and enlivening experience. You begin to feel, remember, and experience life through every sense. Your deepest self emerges, the one you’ve been waiting and yearning for.

Our Partnership | Kapawi The history of Kapawi Eco-lodge begins with an Ecuadorian eco-tourism pioneer named Daniel Koupermann and a call from the Amazon rainforest's Achuar Indigenous Nation...

In the late 1990s, some of the Achuar people from the Ecuadorian rainforest partnered with the founders of the Pachamama Alliance. This partnership was based on the belief that all people on this planet have a critical stake in the well-being of the Amazon rainforest.

This collaboration led to two major achievements: The creation of the Kapawi Ecolodge, a sustainable tourism venture owned and operated by the Achuar, and the inclusion of Rights of Nature in the 2008 Ecuador Constitution. Learn more about this partnership to preserve the ancestral lands and culture of the Achuar.

Together, we can support the guardians of the Amazon! 🌏✨

The Achuar The Achuar are a group of Indigenous peoples whose ancestral lands are located in the Amazon Basin of Ecuador and Peru.
