N2 - The Ese’ Eja Infierno Native community and the alliance with the private company has meant a sustainable tourism intervention in their community. Over the course of twenty years, a relationship has been woven between the Ese’ Eja Native community and the private Rainforest company that has allowed the development of ecotourism in the area. Since COVID 19 and the confinement, new threats have taken over the community and weakened its management of the «Posada Amazonas» ecotourism project. The following article proposes an advance on the research project that addresses cultural identity, gender and ecotourism in the native community of Infierno from a gender perspective. This article is the first result of an interdisciplinary research project based on cultural studies, psychology and biology, with interviews with women leaders of the native community of Infierno and leaders of the community of Palma Real, using the participatory method in workshops with young adolescents and children. The study shows the participation of the community in the development of ecotourism, the participation of women leaders in the development of the community, as well as a concern about the loss of cultural identity on the part of young people and adolescents. At the same time, it suggests how bringing the Palma Real community closer to Infierno could be key to the development of ecotourism and the rescue of the Ese’ Eja language.
