A maloca for sustainable projects
Learning from the wisdom of nature
Maloca Totem is a common house where nature, stories and people meet. Each totem is a project: a book, an academy, a game, an idea that learns from the way life solves things.

Everything is…

From the maloca to the planet
A mini course on sustainability told as puppet theatre, with the totems as characters and Yanis as your guide. In English and Spanish.
“Nothing in this house lives alone.”
- A house
- inside a forest
- inside the Amazon
- inside a planet
- Earth’s spheres:
- air
- water
- ice
- rock
- life
The totems
What nature already knows
Each totem brings together beings that solve a problem in their own way. Yanis researches them and tells us what they teach.
Behind the maloca
Hi, I’m Yanis
That’s what my family used to call me. I’m Diana Carolina Monroy Morera, an innovation facilitator: I have helped entrepreneurs, companies, governments, NGOs and citizens learn from nature to create solutions. The maloca brings together everything I do, and everything still to come.
