Project objectives

This project aims to protect 35% of the Red-fronted Macaw breeding population from poaching by improving protection in three national areas and supporting the sustainable development of the local communities that reside in them. By doing so, this project ultimately hopes to break the chain of the illegal trade.

This project is implemented by Asociación Civil Armonia.
