On March 8, 2012 several hundred Indigenous people began a two week march across Ecuador to call attention to their protest of a large-scale open-pit copper mine. Ecuacorriente, a Chinese company, has been authorized by the Correa government to develop a mine near El Pangui, Zamora-Chinchipe Province, in the southern part of the country.

I remember growing up and climbing trees as a child; they were my haven when I needed space. The trees were a place where I felt closest to myself. I always felt a strong connection to them from a young age, without understanding why. I also recall my mother telling me about her childhood in the jungles of Guatemala, where she would swing on the branches of the trees and the jungle was her playground. I deeply resonated with her childhood joy and connection with the trees.
