Project Description
Para La Tierra promotes Paraguay internationally as an ideal destination for ‘sustainable social tourism’. This new approach to tourism encourages visitors to contribute towards existing social, scientific and conservation projects that are designed to have a positive impact on the country.
We’re based at Reserva Natural Laguna Blanca in San Pedro Department. The reserve is uniquely situated at the confluence of three important and globally threatened South American ecoregions: the Upper Paraná Atlantic Forest, the Cerrado, and the Bosque Central of Paraguay. The reserve is centred on a natural artesian lake, Laguna Blanca. Because of this, it harbours an extensive diversity of plants and wildlife, including a number of rare, threatened, and endangered species.
Our main aim is to help to protect these globally endangered habitats and their inhabitants. We do this by a variety of methods including recruiting volunteers to help and working with the local community.
