The mission
Since 2015, the non-profit organization EKO! has been supporting positive and innovative projects
that combine ecology and solidarity . It fosters individual and collective development and resilience while respecting nature and cultures!
EKO! What does that word mean?
‘eko’ in espéranto
means ‘beginning’: the equivalent of ‘let’s go!’ or ‘let’s go!’ in the language without borders, and resonates to give us the tempo in building a resilient and united tomorrow!
‘oïkos’ in ancient Greek
means ‘house’ and gave us the words ‘ecology’ and ‘economy’: because the home is a key place of transition, echoing this Earth, our common home which it is vital to take care of!
