Description/notes
Sustentarse advocates for Human Rights, sustainable development and good socio-environmental governance at the local level. We support communities and, especially, the most vulnerable groups -such as women and indigenous peoples- in the defence of their rights, their territories and the environment.
We promote sustainability in its various dimensions and expressions for fair, sustainable and inclusive development, respect for the self-determination of communities and the appreciation of their cultural-symbolic and natural-ecological heritage.
