IE's three decades of conservation work in the Amazon has been featured on National Geographic Traveler's Intelligent Travel blog [1].
"The efforts by IE and its travelers take the term 'voluntourism' to a new level, demonstrating just what it means to see the world and save it, too. Led by local naturalists and historians, their goal is to cultivate a greater appreciation and understanding of the earth's natural wonders as well as the welfare of the local people and communities within them."
