  The Pachamama Alliance - About Pachamama
The Pachamama Alliance is a U.S. based not-for-profit organization that was born out of a relationship developed between a group of people from the modern world and the leaders of remote indigenous groups in the Amazon region of Ecuador.
The Pachamama Alliance is based on the recognition that those of us in the modern world share a deep connection with the people who call the rainforest their home-each of us having a critical stake in the health and well being of this vital element in our global life support system.
Pachamama has a commitment both to develop tangible, real-life projects through which rainforests provide more direct economic benefit standing than cut as well as to broaden the general economic view so that the value of standing rainforests and the costs associated with their destruction are measured and counted.

Pachamama: So cool and shady is this place set within the confines of the Gandoca-Manznillo Wildlife Refuge that the owners took down the ceiling fans.
Of course the action at Pachamama centers around Punta Uva beach where you can relax in the sun or palm-shade, swim in the calm waters, snorkel the living reefs, beachcomb, hike, fish/spearfish, or take one of our kayaks up the river or out on the sea.
These activities are all right here at Pachamama, but being within the Gandoca Manzanillo Wildlife Refuge we also have a wide variety of wildlife frequenting the property and strongly recommend guided hiking, kayaking, or boating tours with local guides where you will experience an unforgettable array of flora and fauna.

 pachamama
The roots of The Pachamama Alliance begin in Ecuador in 1995, when a group of people from San Francisco visited the territory of the Achuar people, an indigenous group that maintains its traditional way of life in a remote and amazingly pristine region of the Amazonian rainforest.
The strong base of support provided by The Pachamama Alliance and the commitment of its members has allowed the Fundacion Pachamama to grow, increasing the scope and impact of its work to the entire southern Oriente and creating partnerships with six local indigenous organizations in addition to the Achuar people.
NAE has been the main partner in Ecuador of Fundacion Pachamama for the last ten years and building on this successful relationship Fundacion Pachamama has established partnerships and alliances with the neighbours of the Achuar in the south of the Ecuadorian Amazon; the Shuar, the Shiwiar, the Zapara’s and the Kichwa’s.
