Mission statement:	The IPADE Foundation is an environmental NGOD, working, since 1987,in developing co-operation projects in Latin America, Africa and Asia supporting vulnerable populations living in impoverished rural areas so that their development can be economically viable, socially just and environmentally sustainable. To this day we have implemented more than 130 projects in 26 countries, keeping close links with a large number of local social organisations. We are currently promoting development processes in Morocco, Mauritania, Tunisia, Algeria, Senegal, Bolivia, Peru, Guatemala, Ecuador, Philippines, Vietnam, and Cambodia. In Spain, we promote awareness and education for development projects and campaigns, focussing on the causes and effects of poverty. We encourage the will for structural change focussing on fair and sustainable lifestyles Sustainable production: Supporting agriculture, forest management, livestock, fishing, and aquaculture production systems founded in the basis and values of a sustainable development. Achieving improvement in efficiency and productivity of resources not damaging the environment. Sustainable tourism: Using fewer resources through the provision of integrated tourist packages that promote the conservation of areas with high ecological value, and preventing or reducing mass and concentrated tourism. Environmental planning and management: Allowing compatibility with the conservation of protected areas, and/or areas with a high environmental value, promoting a sustainable use of resources in favour of the local population, as well as monitoring land and urban planning processes in Southern countries. Sustainable energy : Increasing people’s access to sustainable energy and promoting the use of renewable energies such as wind power, solar thermal power, solar photovoltaic power, biomass energy or mini-hydroelectric power. We support the access rights of impoverished countries to clean development mechanisms. Environmental sanitation: Encouraging the use of preventive practices, the implementation of clean production systems in order to minimize waste emissions, at the source, and prevent pollution. Reduction of environmental vulnerability : Through soil conservation and fight against forest fires, including actions to prevent erosion and in aim of environmental education. Sustainable water management: Through the implementation of actions intended to maintain and improve water quality, protecting resources and economizing their use, as well as promoting the improvement of management production systems, water supply and distribution of drinking water, and the development of sanitation networks. Strengthening skills of people in vulnerable situations: Independently of their race, gender, religion, and political convictions fostering their ability to identify and fight for their rights and interests and to participate in decision-making and power structures. We promote the access, use, control and distribution of natural resources, taking into account sustainability and equity for the communities we work with. The main aim of our actions in Education for Development is to inform about the consequences of environmental degradation and how it increases poverty in Southern countries. Environmental phenomena such as climate change, desertification and biodiversity loss represent a major obstacle to eradicate poverty: raising awareness on these issues is paramount to promote a societal behavioural change.
