Sustainable Solutions for Desert Regions
Explore our range of initiatives designed to foster sustainable development and economic growth in Iquique and beyond.
Innovative Agriculture Training
Our Innovative Agriculture Training programs equip local farmers with the skills and knowledge necessary to adopt sustainable practices. We provide workshops and hands-on training sessions, enabling community members to develop resilience against desertification and improve their crop yields. By fostering a deeper understanding of eco-friendly farming techniques, we empower local farmers to create sustainable livelihoods while nurturing the surrounding ecosystem.
EcoMercado Solidario Initiative
The EcoMercado Solidario Initiative is a pioneering project designed to enhance economic resilience in the El Boro sector of Alto Hospicio. By connecting local producers with consumers, this community-driven market promotes sustainable economic activities. It supports local farmers by providing them with a platform to sell their produce directly, ensuring they receive fair compensation while fostering a sense of community. This initiative not only helps bolster local economies but also encourages environmentally friendly practices among both producers and consumers.
Community Engagement Programs
Our Community Engagement Programs focus on building relationships with local populations to enhance food security and resilience. We offer resources and training that encourage sustainable agricultural practices, enabling families to improve their nutrition and economic stability. Through workshops, outreach activities, and participatory initiatives, we involve community members in the decision-making process, ensuring their voices are heard and empowering them to drive change within their own environment. Together, we promote sustainable development tailored to each community’s unique challenges.
Desertification Combat Strategies

Through careful research and innovative actions, we develop tailored strategies that restore soil health and improve land productivity.
