Through multiple 2-day intensive trainings, men and women llama farmers from 8 Andean communities living in extreme poverty, will gain the skills to provide sustainable eco-friendly pack services with their llamas to tour operators which operate in their communities and demand pack services to transport camping materials but have systematically marginalized the local population due to their lack of training in tourism services. Trainees will then share gained skills in their communities.

Andean llama farmers rely on rain season to water their crops and pastures. Global Warming effects alter season cycles making farming tasks challenging and unpredictable and reducing pasture quality. Water collection through geo tanks allow llama farmers to irrigate grassland during dry seasons and improve quality of pasture for llamas. Each Geo Tank provides improved nutrition to 70 llamas which generate alternative sources of income for 10 families improving the quality of life of 45 people.
