"Tagua" is the Quechua Indian word used in Ecuador, for Vegetable Ivory. In 1990, Conservation International began working to save the Ecuadorian rainforest, one of the most biodiverse and endangered ecosystems in the world. The Tagua Initiative™, an alliance between Conservation International and local groups, was formed to link rural Tagua harvesters with companies using Tagua for buttons, crafts, and jewelry.
