The Ecuadorian EcoFund
The Ecuadorian EcoFund is
a private trust fund that supports local efforts and communities to
conserve the natural heritage of Ecuador, through the co-financing
of projects in specific areas. With their support, NCI has implemented
a system for monitoring biological and social indicators for conserving
biodiversity in the La Ceiba conservation and development area in
southern Ecuador. Additionally, NCI has been working with local peoples
to develop sustainable production practices using native bees and
goats, and to reduce the illegal trafficking of endangered parrots.
