- Sustainable Agriculture Practices: Contribute to work in traditional agroforestry farms by planting, weeding, and harvesting products.

- Eco-Tourism Support: Support eco-tourism projects and guide visitors as they learn about forest foods, traditional Amazonian dishes, and agroforestry systems.
- Market Research: Conduct research on local Amazonian products and national and international markets where they can be sold.
This opportunity is ideal for those interested in culinary arts, sustainable agriculture, herbalism, ethnobotany, clinic, hospital placement, internship, medicine, emergency medicine, traditional healing, indigenous rights, agroforestry, biodiversity, sustainable development, research, community development, economic development, climate change, and environmental conservation.
Detailed Internship StructureInterns begin with an orientation in the city of Tena. After, interns spend the first few weeks getting to know their host family and internship placements. Depending on the needs of the placement, potential internship activities may include working in a chakra (traditional agroforestry farm), participating in workshops, and conducting research.
Accommodation and MealsInterns live with host families, allowing them to form meaningful connections with locals during their time in the Amazon. Most host families live in rural communities close to the forest, and many have their own agroforestry farms and invite interns to join them when they plant, weed, and harvest.
