Jambi Yura (which means “medicinal plant” in the Quichua language) is our mission to preserve traditional ethnobotanical knowledge in the Ecuadorian Amazon. We are publishing a book with Quichua authors who are dedicated to ensuring that their Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) is not lost forever.
