We Belong: Performing our first community trail in the Andean Chocó

About Caoba de Monte

Caoba de Monte is an arts-based, territory-focused process committed to the valorisation of collective knowledge, the strengthening of human networks, and the restoration of human and non-human ecosystems — activated through a contemporary library, education across all ages, collective memory, and collaborative work. The organization honours rural, cooperative, and traditional knowledge as legitimate and irreplaceable, while developing methodological initiatives around ecosystem restoration, arts and the safeguarding of collective knowledge. It also creates spaces of leisure, enjoyment and togetherness — all with the goal of strengthening the social fabric of Recinto El Progreso. Healthy soil and thriving social bonds are not parallel goals — they are considered the same work, carried out simultaneously and by the same hands. Its work is sustained through volunteering, actions and management of various national and international funds, in pursuit of long-term cooperative autonomy.
