The Darklands Foundation, in collaboration with local government and non-governmental institutions, sponsors seminars and workshops for indigenous peoples, focusing on physical and mental health as well as economic development, with a particular emphasis on the empowerment of women. The Foundation provides special assistance to cacao producers, supporting their efforts to integrate agriculture in the rainforest, enabling indigenous people to remain on their lands and thus preserve the rainforest, a benefit to all of humanity.
Its yearlong Women’s Empowerment Program focuses on providing educational tools that foster the development of indigenous women in practical ways. The program aims to empower and inspire through continuous education and opportunities.
