Sustainable Tourism for (and in) an Ecuador Cloud Forest

In the remote mountains of western Ecuador, a small group of families operate an ecolodge and care for the surrounding 1,800 acres of cloud forest reserve. That’s where Emerson students will travel this summer, to help the families grow their business. In the process, they will earn college credit while studying biodiversity conservation, local cultural preservation, sustainable tourism, and marketing.
