“We decided to join this initiative because, in addition to promoting the creation of new protected areas in the country within the framework of the new environmental institutions, it incorporates technical support that guarantees the development and implementation of management plans. This will allow us to move towards the effective conservation of priority sites for biodiversity, especially birds,”

Diego Urrejola, the foundation’s executive director, said this highlights the role of environmental philanthropy in addressing global challenges.
