Omar Mejia, co founder of Café Conciencia and filmmaker Willy Barreno, will
present their work creating economic development and awareness by weaving a
network of community run cooperatives in Guatemala, the Guatemalan migrant
community in the United States and the American consumer who is interested in
Fair-Trade and Organic principles. They will speak about connections with
rural and indigenous communities who will self-preserve and grow by having
equal access to food, shelter, employment and education. We are invested
in the hopes that <st1:country-region w:st="on">Guatemala</st1:country-region>’s
producer community and <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">U.S.</st1:place></st1:country-region>
market will cultivate a relationship that generates a sustainable and dignified
way of life so that immigration in exchange for food is not the only option. <br>
<br>
Café Conciencia markets products with organic and Fair-trade principles within
a network of fair-trade conferences and educational workshops. Café Conciencia
is an international non-profit organization that works in solidarity with
worker-owned cooperative communities in <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Guatemala</st1:place></st1:country-region> to help them achieve
social and economic justice and improve their overall quality of life.<br style="">
