Conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity

Conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity

Under this line of action, the Foundation develops activities for designing and implementing natural resource management proposals, usually in collaboration with government entities with relevant competencies (such as Regional Autonomous Corporations, the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development, and National Natural Parks), always with a participatory and integrated approach, which includes the interests of the various stakeholders involved in the conservation and use of resources. Among the activities carried out are: the formulation of management plans for areas or species populations, the design of marine zoning schemes, the study of the environmental impact of engineering works, the regulation of tourism activities, the definition of fishery management measures, and the integrated management of watersheds.
