Our Mission
The mission of the LATA Foundation is to use tourism to drive positive impact in Latin America. We support locally led, grassroots initiatives across the continent – from community development and education to conservation and wildlife as well as gender equality and female empowerment.

Our Aim
The aim of the LATA Foundation is to empower local people, build capacity in the NGOs we support, and help protect the places we all love to visit. Through our work, we demonstrate that tourism can be a force for good – a catalyst for change that enriches lives, supports communities, and preserves the natural and cultural heritage of Latin America.

The LATA Foundation was set up in 2007 by the Latin America Travel Association, bringing together tourist boards, airlines, tour operators, hotels, ground agents, travel publishers, PR companies and the press to give back to the countries they are all so passionate about.

Every year we support carefully selected projects, all with a tangible link to tourism and a strong emphasis on long term impact and capacity building. For this year’s project partners, please see below.
