Together with the local people, Život Postaru works on various fronts:
Protection of the Rainforest
Život Postaru is committed to preserving the Ecuadorian Amazon region around Rio Blanco. The area is increasingly threatened by gold mining, deforestation, and environmental destruction. Together with the local people, the organization works to protect valuable forest areas in the long term and to preserve the livelihoods of future generations.
Wald School & Kindergarten Rio Blanco
With the support of the forest school and the kindergarten in Rio Blanco, Život Postaru creates a place where children can connect education, nature, and cultural values. At the same time, traditional knowledge of the community is preserved and passed on to the next generation.
Protection against the consequences of gold mining
The increasing gold mining threatens not only the forest but also rivers, soils, and the health of the local people. In particular, the pollution from mercury and other harmful substances poses a danger to the community of Rio Blanco. Život Postaru is committed to raising awareness of these issues and promoting sustainable alternatives.
Preservation of Indigenous Culture & Traditional Knowledge
An important focus of the organization is supporting indigenous communities in preserving their culture, language, and traditional knowledge. Through educational projects, encounters between different indigenous peoples, and the transmission of traditional practices, Život Postaru helps keep this valuable heritage alive.
