New Video: Inside Ecuador’s High-Altitude Forests

Chimborazo in Ecuador

Ecuador’s majestic Chimborazo glacier is shrinking, threatening local water supplies. To combat this, Acción Andina—alongside conservation leaders and communities—is restoring high-altitude forests that capture moisture, regulate water cycles, and protect fragile ecosystems. Blending modern science with ancestral knowledge, this initiative ensures restoration is both innovative and deeply rooted in tradition. Follow Acción Andina President and ECOAN Founder Constantino Aucca Chutas (Tino) to Chimborazo National Park, where local partner Andean Adventures is leading a monumental reforestation effort to safeguard water for generations to come.
