We train conservation and responsible access leaders in the region

Black Diamond & Acceso PanAm

Voces LatAm is a program by Black Diamond and Acceso PanAm dedicated to building a new generation of conservation and responsible access leaders in Latin America. By bringing together climbing and mountain communities, it creates space for practical learning, shared experience, and collective growth – responding to a clear regional need for more inclusive spaces to grow, connect, and inspire.

Voces LatAm 2026

In this new edition of Voces LatAm, we will explore inspiring experiences from across Latin America, shared by the people leading them. An opportunity to learn from real-world conservation and access initiatives, exchange ideas, and strengthen the regional community of climbers and mountain enthusiasts committed to protecting their landscapes.
