The main objective of the ConBosque program is to contribute to the conservation of 17,301<\/span><\/span><\/em> hectares of forest in the Colombian and Peruvian Amazon, while ensuring the sustainable use of resources and improving the quality of life and well-being of 284 families from farmers and indigenous communities. The program will contribute to the development of economic alternatives to deforestation, enabling families to diversify their incomes, and value standing rather than felled forests. <\/span><\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n<\/div>

Peru and Colombia are home to exceptional biodiversity and ecosystems that provide vital resources for forest-dependent communities.<\/p>\n

Although both countries have made efforts to protect these unique spaces through the creation of protected areas, these policies are clearly insufficient to deal with the threats facing the Amazon region.

Within this context, the ConBosque program operates in the Amazon rainforest, on deforestation fronts, both in the Piedemonte region (border between the Andes and the Amazon) and in the Amazonian plain. <\/span><\/p>\n

The aim is to build the capacities and awareness of rural and indigenous populations<\/b> to ensure their commitment to the environmental protection of their territory and their active participation in biodiversity conservation. This goes hand in hand with the search for ways to diversify their income through economic alternatives derived from forests<\/b> and marketed on local and national markets.<\/p>\n

Three priorities will be targeted:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
