Guaraní initiatives,
local & international support
Many Guaraní raise their voices, want to be heard and want to be noticed. Here are two initiatives of a visual and musical kind launched by some young Guaraní.
The Swiss organization "Public Eye" has started a petition of signatures to motivate food corporations who use Stevia to make compensation payments to the Guaraní.
Should such money ever be forthcoming, the Guarani decided – in an assembly in mid-2016 in the Brazilian-Paraguayan border area, where the Stevia originates from – that the purchase of land is a priority.
There are also private initiatives. Dr Mariana is able to plan a community house/centre for the Guaraní thanks to a private donation of 100,000 Swiss francs,
