    Protecting the water, the forest and supporting local communities

    COMMUNITY PROJECTS

    Since 2001, Nabi Nunhue has been dedicated to protecting the surrounding forests, restoring local ecosystems, and caring for the region’s precious water sources. Through reforestation, land stewardship, and community partnerships, the foundation helps preserve both the natural environment and the life it sustains.

    Working alongside local farming families, Nabi Nunhue supports projects such as fuel-efficient wood-burning stoves and sustainable septic systems. These initiatives reduce indoor smoke, decrease the demand for firewood, help protect the forest, and improve the health and well-being of the surrounding communities.

  • Pachamilli Museum

    Museo Pachamilli

    CERÁMICA ANCESTRAL

    Pachamilli - meaning “Mother Cosmos” in the Kichua language - is a unique collection of pre-Columbian ceramics created by the ancient peoples who inhabited this region over 3,000 years ago.

    Unlike conventional museums, Pachamilli is housed within a ceremonial temple where these sacred objects remain connected to their original purpose. Many of the pieces were created for ancestral ceremonies and healing rituals, carrying a spiritual significance that extends far beyond their archaeological value.

    While museums traditionally preserve such objects behind glass, Nabi Nunhue believes their true value lies in keeping their living tradition alive. Here, the ceramics are not only carefully protected but are also honoured within the ceremonial context for which they were originally created, allowing them to continue serving their purpose in healing ceremonies conducted by traditional shamans.
