📋 Tender Overview
With the firm commitment to protect its valuable natural heritage, the Regional Government of Loreto, through the Regional Environment Management and its sub -management of conservation and biological diversity, has been decidedly promoting the implementation of the Regional Conservation Area (ACR) Medium Putumayo Cotton (MPA), located in a strategic area of the Loretan Amazon.
This new ACR covers territories of the districts of Putumayo, Yaguas and Rosa Panduro (province of Putumayo), as well as the district of Pebas (Marshal province Ramon Castilla), and constitutes an ecosystem of high biological diversity, where indigenous communities and local populations inhabit that they depend directly on the ecosystem services provided by these Amazon forests.
Within the framework of this strengthening process, a key meeting was held between officials of the Regional Environment Management and representatives of the Zoological Society of Frankfurt (FZS), with highly positive results: FZS reaffirmed its commitment to provide progressive financial support for three years for the implementation of the ACR MPA.
As the first concrete step, it was agreed to prioritize the construction of the headquarters of the ACR Headquarters during this year, which will mark a milestone in the operation of the area. This cooperation was formalized through a letter of understanding that seals the work articulated between both institutions. The initiative also has the technical and financial support of international organizations such as the Institute of the Common Good (IBC), Andes Amazon Fund (AAF), International Conservation (CI) and Re: Wild, which have joined this collective effort to preserve biodiversity and promote a sustainable management model.
With this type of actions, the Loreto regional government ratifies its national leadership in environmental conservation, betting on strategic alliances and public policies that guarantee harmonic development between nature and communities, for the benefit of current and future generations.
