Amazonian Institute
Our Mission
The Amazonian Institute was founded on the belief that our youth can change the world. Given the opportunity to work on projects that address important issues, they are in a better position to lead social change.
Our mission is preservation through improving education and empowering youth to act and make decisions that promote sustainability. We achieve this mission by providing low income and at risk students educational opportunities to learn, develop leadership skills, and become successful, contributing humans. We provide instruction in applied technology to build 21st century skills. Through service learning projects we encourage collaboration among students and their peers in South America, to increase awareness and to address environmental and preservation issues.
The service-learning programs are real world projects the Amazonian Institute has undertaken. Mentors provide guidance, but the students are in leadership roles doing the real work. This improves their problem solving skills and empowers them to realize the potential they have to change the world and be productive humans.
Our organization provides direct services to improve education:The Institute is working on merging traditional and new technologies of cultivation and use of plants, their analyzes and applications in the present conditions. We provide creative mentoring, access to higher education and service projects through each office’s Local Programs. The extended family of partner organizations and past participants in the Europe allows us to have a a greater impact in the communities we serve.
