Community Projects

Fundación Marvivo is leveraging the innovation of preservation models to support initiatives and ventures to promote the sustainable use of ecosystems. We strive to build trust and enthusiasm among ALL stakeholders through mutual respect, full transparency, capacity building, and the exchange and transfer of open and mutual knowledge.

The Community of Magdalena Bay is one of the main direct stakeholders and beneficiary of all the Projects of the MarVivo Foundation.

Marvivo Foundation relies heavily on community learning. Without participatory learning, it cannot improve our lives or theirs effectively, nor make us effective stewards of nature.
