SUSTAINABILITY AND CONFLICT

SUSTAINABILITY AND CONFLICT
Bogotá

Colombia has been experiencing an economic resurgence during its transition out of the longest civil war in history. Our immersion juxtaposed an overnight stay at the remote coffee farm and ecolodge, La Palma y el Tucán–creating new models for farming in rural Colombia–with the fastest growing Latin American startup, Rappi; a studio visit with infamous graffiti artist DjLu; and breakfast with a former FARC guerrilla. We implored how to establish and retain models for sustainability amidst tremendous change and upheaval.

The global advertising company, MullenLowe SSP3, hosted us at their firm. There we reviewed the multi-year campaign collaboration with the government urging guerrillas to drop arms and return home to their families. Among populating jungle rivers with lights during Christmas. We sat down with Chef Tomás Rueda for a multi-course meal at his world-renowned restaurant, Tábula.
