Here’s a general update on ASANA activities:
Plastic-free Whale Bay (Bahía Ballena): ASANA has initiated the second phase of this project, working with the Osa Municipality to get the entire county declared plastic-free. ASANA also continues to work with businesses in the region to reduce plastic use and disposal.
Local Council – Path of the Tapir Biological Corridor: ASANA has initiated development of a 5-year work plan for the corridor.
Tapir Research: ASANA will soon initiate a 2-year research project on tapirs in the Talamanca Mountains. This project will focus on genetic sampling and the use of camera traps. We are hoping to secure funding to extend the study into the Savegre River Watershed to determine the extent to which the newly established biosphere reserve is providing adequate connectivity between the mountains and the pacific coastal zone.
Thanks for your continued support of ASANA!
