Organization description:
HASER is an acronym for Haciendo Acciones Socio-Ecológicas Resilientes (Making Social-Ecological Actions Resilient). We envision a society where communities organize in different ways and implement resilient and socio-ecological strategies to improve equity and the quality of life on the planet. We stimulate equity and quality of life in Puerto Rico by supporting local actions with a social, cultural, environmental, artistic and educational focus. We define local actions as activities carried out by a group of united people, with personal or community ties, who have identified a specific need and have intentionally come together to address them with concrete actions.
