Our initiative aims to transform the Rio Grande’s environmental challenges into sustainable development opportunities. We plan to replace harmful activities like sand mining with eco-friendly alternatives such as aquaculture and support this with eco-tourism, eco-farming, and eco-transportation, thus safeguarding diverse livelihoods, and revitalizing the community economically and culturally for future generations.
