Biodiversa: Roadtrip for Biodiversity - Ecuador 2024
Concept and Objectives
Ecuador, one of the most biodiverse countries in the world, faces major challenges due to the triple planetary crisis: climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution.
Voz Biodiversa is a dynamic platform created to empower young Ecuadorians in biodiversity conservation and climate action.
Why a Roadtrip?
The Roadtrip for Biodiversity is more than a trip.
It is an immersion experience to:
• Explore Ecuador’s ecosystems.
• Listen to experts, academics, and community leaders.
• Learn about Multilateral Environmental Agreements (MEAs) and public policies.
• Understand the economic and social value of biodiversity.
We build young leaders, connect regions, and Strengthen a national network committed to protecting our planet.
