📋 Tender Overview
Dissemination workshop on social and environmental safeguards strengthens resilience in the face of ecological threats. Citizen contributions to this project can be made until May 24.The Ministry of the Environment (Minam) led the first workshop to disseminate social and environmental safeguards of the Sustainable and Resilient Ecosystems project (GEF-8 MIF-APC), an activity aimed at strengthening the resilience of protected natural areas (ANP) and other conservation areas against forest fires in the central region of the country.
The activity brought together authorities and strategic allies, who learned about the measures that will ensure the implementation of the project under criteria of environmental and social sustainability, promoting the effective participation of the actors involved. Likewise, contributions were collected that will contribute to strengthening these approaches before the start of their execution.
The day was inaugurated by William Llactayo, general director of Territorial Planning and Integrated Management of Natural Resources (DGOTGIRN) of the MINAM, who highlighted the importance of socializing these measures to avoid negative impacts on the population and the environment in areas prone to forest fires.
This activity is part of a dissemination process that has a second session in the city of Huancayo, which will allow the consolidation of the articulated work between the State, local actors, communities and their allies for the conservation of ecosystems and the reduction of risks in the face of this problem.
The meeting was attended by various State entities, including the PCM, Cenepred, Indeci, INBP, CGBVP, PNP, CCFFAA, IIAP, Senamhi, Sernanp, Mindef and Midis. Likewise, representatives of the ANP Pui Pui Protection Forest, Yanachaga Chemillen National Park, Nor Yauyos Cochas Landscape Reserve and the Ashaninka Communal Reserve participated, as well as strategic partners such as WWF Peru and Profonanpe.
