Working with communities

Paramos for Life GEF Project

Ecosimple, in partnership with the Alexander von Humboldt Biological Resources Research Institute, is implementing the Páramos for Life GEF project, aimed at conserving and protecting páramo ecosystems in Colombia. Our aim is to promote sustainability and conservation of natural resources in the Paramo Complexes of Colombia, strengthening community livelihoods.

In this context, we are working on the development of:

  • Comprehensive property diagnosis to identify pressures on natural resources and assess sustainability on the property.
  • Identification of areas with potential for restoration, livelihood strengthening and conservation.
  • Design of restoration actions and productive strategies with a participatory approach.
  • An incentive scheme for conservation, adapted to local conditions.

To optimise land planning and management, we use innovative technological tools that allow us to:

  • Conduct surveys and analyse data efficiently.
  • Edit, generate and systematise spatial information.
  • Identify areas for conservation, restoration and reconversion.
