The Amata Project

Looking ahead into 2021 ✨...
It’s tough to put the events of the past year into words. It is important to both acknowledge the hardships while being grateful for the blessings that this year has brought. Let’s not forget the many global issues that have been brought to light. Let’s continue to fight these battles with the same determination and strength. We are excited to see what’s in store for the Amata Project in 2021. Happy New Year to all 🤍

The Japanese town of Yahaba sets an important example on how to lead from the emerging future and move away from downloading past patterns of society. Within all the current issues of our time (social justice, education, poverty, healthcare, climate change, etc.), there is a future waiting to emerge that diverges from repeating past patterns and involves creating the world that we want to live in 10, 20, 50 years from now...

It is not until we break away from these past patterns of downloading, denying, blaming, and ignoring the problem that we will truly be able to generate a future that solves these problems and upgrades society to a new level of collaboration, co-creating, and eco-system awareness.

The mission of The Amata Project is to take an eco-system level approach to healthcare, particularly women's health, and create from what is waiting to emerge. We take an awareness-based approach to collaborating, co-evolving, and crystallizing this idea of an interdependent global web of good health and well-being. This is the approach required to solve these 21st century problems we now face. This is the approach that will allow us to sense and let come what is waiting to emerge. Connect with us to find out more about how to join this global movement of re-imagining healthcare.

One of the growing side effects of the global COVID-19 pandemic is the significant increase in child labor that has come as a result of school closures and economic hardship. Particularly across the developing world, young children provide income to their families by searching through garbage dumps for recyclable plastic and working on cocoa plantations. Even more heartbreaking is the surge in young girls being sent into s*x work by their own families as a result of these hardships..

It is critical that we spread awareness of the growing surge in child labor and the devastating impact it can have on a child’s health and education. This is a consequence of the pandemic that can only be met by the spread of awareness, the commitment of local and national leadership, and economic relief to these communities.
