Championed as one of the 15 winning projects in the "Tourism Experiences of Tomorrow" competition, an initiative of the National Tourism Chamber of Honduras (CANATURH) and empowered by funding from USAID/Honduras through the Transforming Market Systems Activity, the app's immersive experience helps users dive into the Mayan civilization's legacy while raising awareness about the changing climate. The app introduces a sustainable revenue model through downloads and tablet rentals, connecting cultural preservation with environmental stewardship.
