STRATEGIC LINES.
In response to the transformation and degradation that the ecosystems of the Lacandona Rainforest have suffered due to accelerated population growth, land occupation, and the establishment of huge extensions of agricultural crops and pastures for livestock, Natura Mexicana seeks to promote and implement the necessary actions for the conservation and management of natural ecosystems in the region. These actions are carried out both in natural protected areas and neighboring areas, so ecosystems remain healthy while conserving natural resources and upkeeping the generation of environmental services, income and employment, all of which are necessary for the development and social well-being of the population.
1. Generate and disseminate knowledge about the natural ecosystems of the Protected Natural Areas of the Lacandon Rainforest and their areas of influence to develop adaptive management strategies that favor their conservation.
