Our initiator, Ben Valks, traveled to Xinguara (Pará, Brazil) to meet with Antônio Guimarães, the municipal secretary of environment, sanitation, and tourism. The goal of the visit was to start conversations on establishing a second ecological restoration hub in the state of Pará.
Ben Valks presented the Araguaia Biodiversity Corridor and spoke with the secretary, who showed great interest in joining the project and promoting ecological restoration on farms in the region!
