Hi all,
The Chaikuni Institute is a non-profit organization and educational hub working for a truly
sustainable future for the Peruvian Amazon. Through the union of ancient
indigenous traditions with contemporary
permaculture design, we teach and apply regenerative community-based development practices in Amazonian communities. We bring together people from across the planet with indigenous people of the Peruvian Amazon to co-vision and commit to a common goal – working collectively for the protection of the Amazon rainforest, her people, traditions and
biodiversity.
More info here.
The Chaikuni Institute is currently in the process of design and development. Our current focus is on developing the
permaculture plan and systems on our 175 hectare site, (
Terra Phoenix Design master plan) which we will use as a base for our future education, research and outreach projects. Your participation will be vital in helping us grow and realize our vision.
Currently we are looking for interns to join us in January 2014 for this 6-month NO COST program. For the full description and to apply please
see here.
For the latest on our work, on the
land and with Shipibo youth, you can view

We hope this interests many of you and to hear from you soon,
Nick
