Cultural strenghtening
By Victor Mendoza | Ecotechnologies Coordinator
Dear global givers,
We are happy to announce that we are starting this year with cultural activities such as workshops and music, theater and circus presentations within the framework of the patronal feast of San Pablo. The activities will focus on water and its sustainable management to reinforce previous training in rain harvesting and efficient cooking.
We continue with the monitoring of the installed system and we are designing a replicability training in Mexico City among other environmental education courses focused on hidric security and food sovereignty, promoting the understanding that the water cycle is fomented by trees so agroecology allows us to perspire the rain that we will later harvest. As we always say: ‘’ rain has to be sown ’’. We keep working together, we wish you a happy year!

A node of new alliances for water security

Rainwater harvesting system maintenance
Dear global givers,
We have been monitoring the installed system and generating strategies to improve the installation and to reduce the water lag in the community promoting an alternative to centralized accessibility. The pandemic had affected the community and few people died, the rain season had been modified because of climate change and local deforestation.
We are working with the community to raise awareness about the sustainable use of local water resources. We are generating alliances to finance the replicability of the rain harvest locally and regionally and we have made contact with other communities in the same region in order to find applications of ecologic practices based on agriculture and rain harvesting.
Now we are focused on promoting community ties to reconnect with water and soils through activities with strict sanitary protocol, among which we will have collective work sessions, training and audiovisual projections, workshops and cultural activities too!

Facing new pandemic contexts
By Victor Mendoza | Ecotechnologies Coordinator
Dear global givers,
These last months we have been strengthening our alliances to coordinate the next activities in the community. We are monitoring the installed system and generating strategies to be able to replicate the rain harvest in homes and public buildings to reduce the water lag in the community promoting an alternative to centralized accessibility.
We will be working together with the community to raise awareness about the sustainable use of local natural resources (mainly water and firewood) through film series with an environmental focus. We will continue to generate alliances to finance the replicability of the rain harvest locally and regionally and thus support mexican communities in their health and hygiene in the current pandemic context.
The following months we will focus on promoting community ties to reconnect with water and soils through activities with strict sanitary protocol, among which we will have collective work sessions, training and audiovisual projections.
