Monge Intervention Area
A forest in memory of Pedro

Honouring Pedro's last wish, 43 family members, friends and colleagues joined together to plant 55 trees and shrubs of various native species. The plantation was made especially along the watercourse with the specific objective of restoring the riparian zone. In another zone of this severely ecologically degraded area, the army was engaged in advancing the planned intervention for this area, cutting the dense bramble bushes that had infested the area and thus opening more space for future plantations. This was a highly emotional initiative that inspired us to keep going with our work in involving the community in the restoration of our native forest.
