Creating and Maintaining Conservation Areas at Scale in Andean Countries
This project will support a regional initiative to create and maintain conservation areas at scale across 13 priority landscapes. Re:wild will work with a number of partners in the Andean countries to protect at least 30% of their lands in globally important areas for biodiversity by 2030 by securing legal protection, reinforcing protected area management systems, scaling local and Indigenous solutions to climate change, establishing sustainable funding mechanisms, and removing subsidies to extractive industries. Re:wild will also use high-profile communications to help support local partners and their efforts.
