This Corredor Azul (\u2018Blue Corridor\u2019) is a system of amazing natural beauty and biodiversity and a unique myriad of land and water habitats. If dammed and tamed, its wetlands will be highly degraded and the value and benefits for people lost forever.<\/p>\n<p>This program aims to safeguard the health and connectivity of the river system and its iconic wetlands \u2013 the Iber\u00e1 Marshes and the Paran\u00e1 Delta in Argentina, and the Pantanal in Brazil.<\/p>\n<p>Since its start in 2017, the program has developed strategic alliances with over 25 key organizations in Argentina and Brazil, governmental as well as non-governmental, universities and knowledge centers as well as the private sector. Furthermore, seventeen community-based organisations have been involved in the sustainable use of wetlands resources and preservation of their local livelihoods.<\/p>\n<p>Other successful results of the program so far include:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Negotiated agreements with livestock ranches in the Paran\u00e1 Delta and the Pantanal for better cattle raising practices (covering almost 34,000 hectares).<br \/>\n\u2022 Management plans for the Parana Delta Ramsar Site (243,126 ha), the Kadiw\u00e9u Indigenous Territory (538,535 ha) and the SESC Pantanal Ramsar Site (107,996 ha) have been developed or improved.<br \/>\n\u2022 526 practitioners are trained in sustainable management of wetlands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":594,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-595","programmes","type-programmes","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-south_america","category-wetlands"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.1 -
