The Center for Amazon Community Ecology promotes forest conservation in the Peruvian Amazon by helping native artisans to develop and market innovative handicrafts in the U.S. We are developing an online store to offer these crafts to people throughout the US and the world. We need several people to help us write short descriptions of the products to maximize their exposure in search engines and full descriptions to help sell the products from our online store on Shopify. CACE is a member of the Fair Trade Federation.
We are ideally looking for people who have experience writing copy and SEO tasks for ecommerce sites with an interest in fair trade, fashion, hand-made products, native culture, and forest conservation. It would be ideal if you could see the products first-hand at our office in State College, PA or other sales event. We would also, however, be able to work with an experienced person online by sharing photos of the products. You would be able to do this work on your own schedule.

Mission Statement
The mission of the Center for Amazon Community Ecology is to promote the understanding, conservation and sustainable development of human and other biological communities in the Amazon region. Our three strategies are research, community support and education. One of our main goals is to study the ecology and develop the sustainable harvest and marketing of non-timber forest products such as fruits, fibers, resins, and oils. We also work with indigenous and other forest peoples to sustain local resources and support their communities.
Description
The main strategies for achieving our goals are research, community support, and education. This will include investigating the ecology and sustainable harvest of non-timber forest products (like resins, fruits and fibers) and assisting indigenous and other forest-based communities to manage and market them to support local development and conservation. This will require reaching out to and connecting many people and communities in the Amazon and abroad. CACE is a member of the Fair Trade Federation.
