Regular price
€28.50
In October 2012, an international and multidisciplinary team of experts conducted a rapid social and biological inventory of the Ere, Campuya, and Algodon watersheds of northern Amazonian Peru. Team members working on the social inventory studied the connections between local communities and their natural surroundings, while team members working on the biological inventory surveyed geology, plants, fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals at three wilderness sites. Based on these studies, the team and its local partners drew up a detailed series of recommendations for sustaining healthy towns and forests in the area. This volume contains the team's full report and results in both Spanish and English, as well as overviews in Murui and Kichwa.
