Questions + Considerations

 

How will sustainability be reflected in all of our choices at Apogeo Collective?

What offerings can Apogeo Collective make for year-round participation with our communities?

How can Apogeo Guest House serve as a safe-haven to LGBTQIA+ communities local to Nicaragua that, since the 2018 riots, have not felt comfortable living in their own country?

What makes Apogeo Guest House unique and differentiates it from most other white-washed, wellness-focused hotels that have brought harm into the places they inhabit?

How can we connect with organizations to support the growth and safety of local LGBTQIA+ communities, everywhere we are?

What are some key offerings for a space to have at our experiences (including at our flagship Apogeo Guest House location) in order for guests to feel safe?

How can we ensure that guests’ varying accessibility needs are met?

What do guests of varying social needs (extroverted, introverted) need in order to feel as though their energy has been replenished?

How can the process of “community consensus” shape and contribute to a project run by two people that’s meant to benefit a larger community?

What is the role of archiving at Apogeo Collective?

How can we set up a space that offers resources/tools for travelers without having an opinion on how those resources are consumed?

How can we create a space for guests to explore + feel empowered in a space that we’re not from, while also maintaining respect for a place and culture that does not belong to us?

What are the lines between participation, contribution, and consumption?
