Ayni-tourism or tourism with reciprocity is a way of traveling with meaning. We organize tours in which the visitor not only enjoys unique landscapes and quality services, but also contributes to the welfare of local communities.
Through tourism, we reach rural communities by providing school supplies, materials for artisans and ready-made graphic products for local entrepreneurs.
Each tour is an exchange experience: knowledge is shared, local income is generated and real links are created between travelers and local people.
We support local and rural community entrepreneurship through ayni
tourism -tourism with reciprocity-, the development of visual identities,
training in different areas and the creation of collaborative networks that will
connect people, knowledge and identities.
Many tourism ventures in rural areas do not have access to professional design services, either because of cost or because they simply do not exist in the community. That's why we support small family businesses - lodges, restaurants, handicraft workshops - by providing them with visual identity and promotional tools. We design logos, menus, business cards and custom templates in Canva, along with hands-on workshops so they can manage their communication independently.
The development of collective brands in rural communities is key to strengthen their identity and tourism projection. At Chiwiña we promote and accompany the creation of brands for small communities with tourism development potential.
This work is done in coordination with local authorities and community members, who actively participate in the process to achieve a visual identity that they really feel represented. According to their needs, we also create promotional flyers, signs, murals and digital inputs.
We have worked with communities such as Isla de la Luna, Suriqui, Rodeo Pampa (Toro Toro), Tocaña and Cachuela Esperanza.
We believe in the exchange of knowledge as a tool for empowerment, living memory and intercultural dialogue.
At the Escuelita Chiwiña, ancestral knowledge, traditional crafts and current technical skills are shared.
Some workshops are facilitated by the same entrepreneurs who are part of the project, such as the weaving workshop in the Aymara language or the totora reed handicraft workshop, strengthening oral transmission and cultural identity.
We also provide practical training such as design with Canva or basic English, oriented to enhance entrepreneurship.
