Dear donors & supporters,
We are thrilled to begin planning the next Múcura Award! This upcoming edition centers on participatory science and monitoring near Lake Tota, empowered by Fundación Montecito’s innovative CUBY app (prototype version). This platform enables rural students to act as citizen scientists, monitoring climate data—such as rainfall and winds—alongside local biodiversity and environmental news.
By using tools like artisanal rain gauges and digital reporting, youth reconnect with their environment, transforming into active wetland guardians. Your generous support helps us prevent nature detachment while fostering the next generation of conservation leaders.
Thank you for your commitment to securing these vital ecosystems for the future!
Felipe Velasco
Director at Fundación Montecito
