Equilibrium advances more sustainable ways of living in Costa Rica by increasing the environmental literacy of children and teachers, and by greening school infrastructure and reducing the carbon footprint. We engage schools, communities, and organizations in transformational educational projects believing that a good life is one where people and nature co-exist in balance with each other. Our work increases awareness to and engenders a respect for the natural world and the use of its resources.
