Educational and environmental management is a comprehensive educational process that seeks to generate the attitudes, values ​​and practices necessary so that all people can carry out their daily activities in an environmentally appropriate way, with the aim of contributing to the sustainable development of our planet. This is how our environmental education programs seek to generate processes for the construction of knowledge, values ​​and environmental practices in natural spaces, using an experiential teaching and learning model, which promotes ecological awareness and care for the environment in citizens.

“The sustainability of our environment is threatened as a result of our lifestyle. “It is necessary to act now with a great sense of urgency, putting all our awareness and capabilities to direct our lives and that of organizations, to a new way of relating to our environment.”

Social and Community Leadership

Our social and community leadership programs seek to develop skills and competencies in the members of a community so that they can lead processes of social change and improve the quality of life in their environment. In our 30 years of experience, we have developed our own Leadership model, “The Delta Leadership Model” by Rodrigo Jordan and Vertical that, from a practical approach, has allowed us to work with thousands of people in Chile and abroad.

Tourism and Heritage Rescue

Nature tourism is an activity that takes place in natural areas and whose main objective is the appreciation, knowledge and conservation of natural and cultural heritage. Promoting the involvement of communities in their territory through tourism is key to sustainable development and their local economy. Through promotion and capacity development initiatives, we work so that communities can recover and value their cultural and natural heritage, strengthening the sense of belonging, identity and conservation of the territory.
