La Red Agroecológica del Austro (the RAA) is an organization that supports agroecological producers in the region of Azuay, Ecuador in part by providing agroecological fairs for them to sell their goods. We worked closely with agroproducers from organizations within the RAA to establish a database of the producers that our sponsor can use as evidence and data to support their local fairs. Additionally, we provided various media templates to help advocate for food sovereignty as well as a map to showcase the distance traveled for each agroproducer to arrive in Cuenca to sell their produce.
