About Us
Welcome to Ayni Association of Terra Australis
The purpose of Ayni Association of Terra Australis is to protect the natural environment and establish a working, balanced relationship between its custodians, the community and the natural world. This mission brings together like minded people and recognizes the interconnectedness between human well-being and environmental conservation, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a harmonious coexistence with nature and the community.
​​
Working within the Pichukuna Biosphere Reserve’s self-supporting and self regulating system, the members of Ayni Association of Terra Australis are not only working towards preserving the natural environment but also ensuring the well-being of the local community.
Through a balanced relationship with nature, we are invited into a deeper understanding of our true essence, greater insight into natural systems, and the ability to live in harmony with the Earth. This way of life offers a meaningful alternative to the constraints of conventional societal structures, empowering individuals to move beyond mundane routines and reconnect with purpose.
​
With an emphasis on collaboration, community engagement, education, promoting sustainable lifestyles working in reciprocity with the natural world, we work towards a model of conservation that prioritizes both environmental integrity and human welfare for generations to come.
​
This holistic approach to conservation and sustainable development acknowledges that human prosperity is intricately linked to the health of the ecosystems upon which we depend. Through its vision and example, the Reserve inspires others to adopt similar approaches that promote a more conscious and sustainable lifestyle in harmony with the natural world.
