livestock breeding program and garden. Seeing the constant request for livestock donations coming from the kuna tribe, geoparadise decided to implement a breeding program which would provide piglets needed. The ongoing project will provide piglets for donation to different low income communities in the island's indigenous region of kuna yala, diversifying the access to protein and improving nutrition. The team set up a demonstration garden and will work with the communities in experimenting with different kinds of vegetables and herbs in their diet.
