🌍🧵 A network of 2,600 women from the Wichí, Qomle’ec, Qom, and Pilagá communities, COMAR—part of the broader Redes Chaco network—produces and markets, through its brand #Matriarca, handcrafted pieces made from chaguar, wool, and carandillo. Their work preserves ancestral knowledge while generating income that strengthens the autonomy of their families.

💬 Norma Rodríguez (President) and Jessica Sosa (Secretary) share what this recognition means to them and the impact the organization has in their communities.

👉 What is the Equator Prize? Organized by the UNDP Equator Initiative, it celebrates, every two years, communities that lead local solutions to reduce poverty and protect biodiversity.
