about la chiva

what is la chiva?

Driving from the Colombian llanos, from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic, up and down the Andes, carrying plantain, coffee, guayaba, dreams, hope, and much more. La Chiva is coming to Edmonton to tell our Colombian reality. Come and ride with us!

La Chiva is a student group at the University of Alberta, Canada, whose aim is to foster awareness of the social and political situation in Colombia through proactive campaigns that reflect our commitment to social change.

what do we do?

Our activities include film screenings, boycotts against multinational companies involved in the violation of human rights in Colombia, conferences, and 'other' activities that we believe will contribute to the development of our goal.

who is welcome?

ANYONE CONCERNED ABOUT THE CURRENT SITUATION IN COLOMBIA!
