We have engaged with more than 10,000 children, youths, adults and seniors from Mexico and Canada in a wide diversity of hands-on learning environmental education programs to adopt a regenerative mindset rooted on Traditional Ecological knowledge and values.
The relevance and quality of the content developed and the effective delivery of our programs have been made possible thanks to the collaboration and partnerships consolidated over years with several organizations and the generosity of our sponsors to support our work.
Ciclomanias partners with Panterra Educational and Cultural Training Society to advance the First Nations Zero Waste Ambassador Program. By blending Panterra’s 30 years of mentorship in natural sciences with Ciclomanias’ expertise in waste reduction, food sovereignty, and upcycling through art and community programs, we transform waste into opportunities. This collaborative initiative integrates Traditional Ecological Knowledge by working closely with Elders and Knowledge Keepers, combining it with science-based approaches and arts (STEAM) to inspire and empower communities, fostering a regenerative and inclusive future for all.
We are grateful for the support provided by TELUS Indigenous community fund, TELUS Community Boards, TSAG, Parinama and West Coast Seeds for their kind donations and generosity supporting our work on food sovereignty and building capacity across First Nations.
Ciclomanias has co-authored two children’s books, a bilingual illustrated book (English and Spanish) and a coloring book about the Monarch Butterfly (Lotli). This iconic animal which connects North America (Mexico, USA and Canada) is a keystone species. Lotli books have raised awareness about the Monarch’s butterfly’s biology, environmental conservation and concrete actions that children and families can take to protect them, prevent waste, and change behavior. The book has been read by children and adults to encourage systems thinking and to reflect about the concept of waste that does not exist in nature.
