Vitality, Quality of Life, Responsible Living
Despite many people WANTING to live more sustainably, the process toward it can be full of challenges; especially for QBIPOC & low resource folks.
Nawaya Co.'s strategy prioritizes creating access to these opportunities and forbids wealth-conversion (profiting at the expense of the community or nature).
We believe that whole-systems, community-oriented designs can help to accelerate just transitions toward fulfilling, quality of life, where we can grow deeper relations, support our families, and the next generations
