Challenge

The Pterocarpus Forest faces critical challenges in maintaining its infrastructure, protecting biodiversity, and expanding its educational outreach. Invasive species, wear on facilities like the boardwalk, and limited resources for educational programs threaten its ability to serve as a sanctuary for recreation, learning, and research. The community, visitors, and researchers who rely on the Forest for education, conservation, and passive recreation are directly affected by these challenges.

Solution

The Project will fund boardwalk and gazebo repairs, enabling safe visitor access, remove or control invasive species to protect native biodiversity, and expand educational programs like iNaturalist cataloging of the Forest's organisms, and social media outreach. These efforts will ensure the Forest remains a vital resource for oneness with nature, recreation, environmental education, and research, benefiting the local community and thousands of annual visitors.

Long-Term Impact

By addressing infrastructure needs, controlling invasive species, and enhancing educational outreach, this project ensures the Forest's ecological health, accessibility, and relevance for generations. Long-term impacts include preserved biodiversity, greater community engagement in conservation, and sustained educational opportunities for thousands of visitors, researchers, and students - and an oasis of serenity in the heart of Palmas strengthening.
