What we do

Su historia se remonta a más de 50 años de creación, ya que por décadas estuvo en conflicto limítrofe entre las provincias del Guayas, Los Ríos, y Manabí, siendo ratificada su pertenencia a esta última provincia después de una consulta popular desarrollada en septiembre del 2015.
Cuenta la historia y personajes que aún viven y de familiares de quienes ya no están con nosotros que en el año de 1964 un grupo de colonos llegaron a estas tierras con el afán de lotizar e iniciar a cultivar estas fructíferas tierras.
En aquella época los llamaron el grupo de los 20, porque lo conformaban 20 personas, decidieron ellos lotizar estas tierras y en común acuerdo dejar el lote 14 para la creación de lo que hoy es El Paraíso, nombre que surge de la exclamación de uno de ellos en un atardecer con la caída del sol, diciendo “ESTO SI ES UN PARAÍSO” por sus hermosos paisajes y enriquecida fauna y vegetación existente, de ahí que se formaliza el nombre de El Paraíso(La 14).’’

Gaia Ashram Internship

The Pioneers of Gaia Ashram , 5th of July– 2nd of August 2015 The Gaia Ashram Internship is a one month program on Ecovillage Design, Permaculture and Deep Ecology. The internship will be a holistic participatory learning experience & process. Interns will experience being part of the Gaia Ashram Community and we will live together for one month at– Gaia Ashram-. At Gaia Ashram we belief in holistic learning that balances the head, hands & heart. Gaia Ashram encourages participatory learning & values the power of community in holding the learning space. We design the daily & weekly structure of the internship and of our lives here based on these values and principles. Theoretical learning (Head) The theoretical sessions will be participatory and interactive. It will cover the 4 keys of Ecovillage Design Education (Social, Economical, Ecological and Worldview inspired by Gaia Education). Each week will cover one of the Ecovillage Design Keys and integrated into this we will be introduced to Permaculture Design & Deep Ecology in terms of philosophy, movement and personal experiences. Overall, We will have a maximum of 2-3 hours of theory per day on the session days, to also create lots of space for practical experiential learning. See more details of the key content below. Practical learning (Hands – on) For the hands – on practical learning we will be developing the Gaia Ashram’s farm and restoring nature on the Gaia Ashram land using permaculture strategies & techniques that are appropriate for the Rainy Season & the land and its local context. The hands-on work will focus on Gardening work i.e. developing the vegetable gardens, planting seeds & seedlings, transplanting, propagation of plants, making composts, growing and maintaining a Food Forest, planting green manures, planting lots of trees, planting seasonal crops. Apart from the Gardening we will also will be doing some natural building which mostly will focus on creating natural finishes usi
