Ally Guayusa is a Kichwa-led association founded in 2018 in the Ecuadorian Amazon. It brings together Indigenous community members who cultivate Amazonian fruits and products using traditional knowledge and organic practices. 

Asotexkich is a women-led textile association that brings together 27 artisans – 23 women and four men – from six Kichwa communities. What began as a small initiative in 2016 has grown into a collective effort to support local families, respond to growing demand, and keep cultural heritage alive through traditional clothing.

The Indigenous-led association, Wayusa Ruku Kawsay, brings together members from 14 Kichwa communities in the Ecuadorian Amazon to grow, process, and sell guayusa (Ilex guayusa) – a sacred Amazonian plant known for its natural energizing effects. The name ‘Ruku Kawsay’ means “ancestral life” in Kichwa, reflecting the association's goals to use this traditional plant to reconnect with and sustain Indigenous knowledge and livelihoods. 

Led by 25 Kichwa Indigenous community members, Ñukanchi Sacha Waysa offers cultural and eco-tourism experiences for local, national, and international visitors to the Ecuadorian Amazon, inviting them to step into their way of life. It offers visitors a chance to connect with ancestral Kichwa traditions, learn sustainable farming practices, and help protect the Amazon rainforest.
