In celebration of the World Migratory Bird Day, the members of the Associacion para el Desarrollo Campesino, ADC, will participate in an event organized at the La Cocha lagoon (Ramsar wetland and place of great importance considering the birds’ migration to this part of South America).
Our association has been working with children and young people for the last 20 years through the "Heirs of the Planet" program, which mainly focuses on environmental and education activities for the empowerment of the inhabitants of La Cocha in recognizing and valuing the importance of birds.
The first part of the event will be dedicated to the sighting of waterfowl and terrestrial birds in the surroundings of the lagoon and surrounding forests. The second part of the event will be devoted to a cultural meeting where the participants will share their experiences on the protection of migratory birds through a parade of bird masks, storytelling and drawings.
