Protecting centuries-old forests in Bolivia

Start Date: 26/08/2020
End Date: N/A

Description

Initiative aimed at the long-term conservation of Amazon forests through the establishment and management of a municipal conservation area. It relies on community-based sustainable management of non-timber forest products, such as Brazil nuts and açaí, to provide a stable source of income that discourages deforestation, and on a management plan for the area that safeguards the water and fishery resources on which local communities depend.
