The contributions of all the actors involved in the programs implemented in the Amazon region were noteworthy. In particular, the intervention of representatives from Colombia was very valuable, such as Jani Silva, a peasant and environmental leader, who has contributed to the existence and governance of the Perla Amaz\u00f3nica Peasant Reserve Zone. She stressed the importance of having worked together on issues of connectivity and food security, as they have been able to mitigate the problems that arose as a result of the pandemic. Similarly, Jos\u00e9 Yaiguaje, liaison between ACIPS and La Paya native peoples, referred to the coordination they have been carrying out during these months, to continue working on the maintenance of the ecosystems and megadiversity of the territory.<\/p>\n

For Peru, Zara Sanchez, a specialist from Sernanp, explained how sustainability, through the joint search and construction of financial alternatives, as well as adaptability in the management of Natural Protected Areas (NPAs), are fundamental aspects of the project: \u00abSecuring the future of NPAs\u00bb which is implemented within the framework of the \u00abNatural Heritage of Peru\u00bb Initiative; and stressed the relevance of having spaces for exchange and dialog between the institutions and members of the areas involved. He also pointed out that it is necessary to diversify the sources of financing, as this year the income from tourism in protected areas has suffered a 70% reduction, since tourism \u2013 which represented 90% of the funds collected by Sernanp \u2013 has been affected by the pandemic.<\/p>\n

All agreed on the urgency of connecting with governments and the population, a problem that the pandemic has made visible in recent months, because the work done by the communities of the Amazon, its leaders and managers is remarkable, but spaces for strengthening, as well as pause and reflection that encourage the involvement of the entire population in the development of sustainable and inclusive proposals for recovery are needed. It is a constant process that requires a lot of perseverance, but both local actors and the governments and institutions that coordinate these programs are drawing the road map for future proposals. As Zara Sanchez mentioned: \u00abThe recovery of the Amazon will take time, but we are moving towards it\u00bb..<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
