To promote ecological development and consciousness in a little village called Chiriboga. IBG was interested in the project and sent a group of volunteers to Ecuador in 1998. They started with the first phase of reforesting in the area of Chiriboga, planting 1800 trees. Since 1997 the Foundation Proyecto Ecologico Chiriboga started various projects, similar to the first one.
