The project aims to deliver a fascinating travel account on Ecuador away from typical tourists' pathways while, at the same time, raising the reader's awareness of the diverse environmental problems and their effects on nature and people.

Many economic decisions against sustainability and environmental protection are made as a consequence of the economic dependency on the industrialised countries. Besides the ecological damage, the already difficult economic situation is worsened for the local population.
Even though there is a direct connection to our consumer goods, causes and effects seldom find a place in the information flood, home to the industrialised countries.
During the journey through Ecuador, current environmental topics in the country will be examined: people concerned will be contacted and their views discussed.

Travel and environmental journalism of Global-Reporter is supposed to entertain, inform and stimulate reflection.
