Pedro Osorio is on the natural resources committee representing six communities in the region working together to protect the area."We are currently trying to promote eco-tourism. We built a community hostel for up to 20 people. The idea of this project is for people to see what we do on a daily basis. Some services we offer are tours to visit some of the rare forests, and they are very interesting with waterfalls and springs that you can visit."A lot of our children are emigrating to the cities and other countries and we decided not to just sit and cry, but think what can we do to confront this situation. So we are looking for ways to give more opportunity to our children. And we realized the importance of our culture and conservation. For us the principal theme is conservation, that you don’t contaminate your water, don’t degrade the habitat. If you destroy that, you destroy yourself. And there’s a lot of work to be done, but it doesn’t end there, there’s a lot to do."The organization CAMPO was the piece that helped us focus our efforts. They gave us the ideas and supported our efforts. They helped us when we first formed a cooperative. And we had problems and failure, but we never stopped. We built a school, there were problems, but we learned and we passed that onto others. A few years back, they’ve let us move on our own, and now we have realized we can do it on our own and CAMPO has moved onto help other communities."They perfectly understand the communities, the dynamics. To realize the changes we need, you need to understand, and they really put it together."Whenever you want, you should come to visit us in Tepetotutla"
