Cacao Research center
A year-long exploration of cacao practices shared in week-long courses to deepen your relationship with cacao.
An Education inspired
from ancient practices for the future
The simple way is the new way with hands on experiences.
One Step Ahead
Study with hands-on experience
Through a cacao research centre, natural building school and permaculture immersions, we redefined our connection with sustainability by introducing it as a way of life with a local heart and a worldwide vision.
Ecoducation was an international hub of teachers and researchers that explored new approaches in harmony with the environment. It was a school for local and international students to learn elemental skills which support solutions for worldwide challenges.
