For native communities, this process represents an advance in the legal certainty of their forest activities.(Pucallpa, August 20, 2025) .- The Regional Government of Ucayali, in coordination with the Ministry of Agrarian Development and Irrigation (Midagri), through the National Forest and Wildlife Service (Serfor), developed the first socialization workshop of the Forest Ordering (OF) in the Amazon department, with the participation of 12 leaders of indigenous organizations.
Forest order is a process that seeks to organize the forest territory in clearly delimited areas to promote sustainable use of resources and reduce deforestation. Being an initial stage process, it is essential to socialize with the native communities, so that they know their scope, benefits and the role they fulfill as protagonists of the management of their forests.
Mauro Cairuna, president of the Regional Organization of Amazonian Nationalities of Ucayali (Ornau), stressed: It is important to know about the forest planning process, since it will allow us to know at what time we can develop our forest activities and how to continue preserving our forests within our territories.
Ucayali is the second department to initiate the establishment of the Forest Planning Units (UOF), geographical areas that serve as the basis for organizing, planning and managing the use of forests and wildlife. Each UOF allows you to clearly define what activities can be carried out in the communal territories, such as forest exploitation, conservation or development of forest plantations.
