THE SUPPLY CHAIN OF RIGHTS

ECUADOR

In the Province of Napo, indigenous communities face daily challenges related to environmental sustainability, food security, and access to essential services. In this context, support is provided to the Waylla Kuri and Jatary coffee producer associations, which bring together around 400 members, in a process of strengthening production, organization, and commercial activities aimed at improving the living conditions of local families. For many families, coffee and cocoa cultivation is their only source of income, allowing them to preserve the delicate environmental balance. However, the small size of the crops and the difficulty of accessing markets limit opportunities for socioeconomic development, prompting many young people to leave their communities in search of better living conditions in urban centers.
