Allpamama Kamayuqkuna
Guardians of Mother Earth: An AI Defense for Ancestral Lands
A Nation Under Siege, Ancestral Lands Under Attack
Ecuador faces an unprecedented national security crisis, fueled by organized crime and illegal gold mining. This convergence of threats creates a devastating multi-layered problem for its most vulnerable communities and ecosystems.
Environmental Catastrophe
Illegal mining causes irreversible deforestation, river diversion, and mercury poisoning, destroying the biodiversity that Quechua communities depend on for survival.
Humanitarian Crisis
Armed gangs bring extreme violence, intimidation, and human trafficking into ancestral lands, leading to displacement, loss of livelihoods, and a constant threat to life.
Systemic Vulnerability
A lack of state presence and resources in remote areas leaves communities unprotected, allowing criminal networks to operate with impunity and expand their control.
The Surge in Violence
The crisis is reflected in the nation's homicide rate, which has skyrocketed in recent years.
The Solution: On-Device AI for Community Defense
"Allpamama Kamayuqkuna" is a proactive defense system that empowers communities with autonomous, on-device AI. It provides a critical layer of protection where it's needed most: directly on the ground.
