Ecolectivo Nevados a socio-environmental corridor

SELVA has participated in various research and conservation processess in this region, including 1) identification of priority areas for  two emblematic species, 2) leading habitat restoration activities to improve natural conditions for the Tolima Dove (Leptotila conoveri) and the Yellow-headed Brushfinch (Atlapetes flaviceps), 3) the visualization of properties that make up the Socio-Environmental corridor, and  4) supporting the declaration of the corridor as an OMEC

We are contributing to strengthen a local community who is committed to lead the governance and promote the sustainability of their territory, and which are now organized in the Ecolectivo Nevados association, with the goal of establishing a conservation corridor and implementing colective project ideas to improve the socio-environmental sustainability of this territory.
