Patrick Quio Valdivia
Assistant director and tour coordinator
An environmental engineer by profession, I am an enthusiast of clean technologies and have worked with many organizations and international NGOs on cultural and eco-tourism projects, environmental conservation, and sustainable development in Perú. In 2014, I was part of the Swiss cooperation team at COP 20 (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change – UNFCCC) and supported the delegation of Rio+20 (United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 2012. I am also a photographer with a love for nature photography and am an active supporter of regional arts and culture, including the new Amazon Film School.
