Episode Description
Description:
In this episode, we sit down with Matt Paneitz, Executive Director of The Long Way Home, a nonprofit based in Guatemala that’s transforming communities through sustainable design and construction. Matt shares the incredible story of how The Long Way Home evolved from a vision to a full-fledged organization building schools, homes, and infrastructure out of recycled materials. We explore the challenges of international development, the power of education, and how sustainable construction can be a tool for both environmental and social change. Matt also reflects on the personal journey that led him from Texas to Guatemala, and why local empowerment is at the core of their mission.
