Hi, Just wanted to let you know that there is an Ashoka fellow working in the Choco region and you can support her project with donations through GlobalGiving-- here's the summary and link: By using ecologically, socially, economically, and culturally compatible species, Analogue Forestry allows 12 communities to protect ecosystems, grow food and profit from selling forest products. Project page is here: www.globalgiving.com/1220 The most recent update from the project was posted in February 2008 and can be found here: http://www.globalgiving.com/pr/1300/proj1220a.html#progressReports Hope this helps!
