This PLAN proposes the promotion of ecotourism in the Colombian Amazon based on integrated water management. The Amazon region is one of the most biodiverse areas in the world, but it is also one of the most threatened due to environmental degradation and lack of water resources. Integrated water management is a comprehensive approach to managing water resources that seeks to balance meeting human and ecological needs.
The main objective of this project is to promote sustainable tourism in the Colombian Amazon and generate income for the Yucuna indigenous community, owner and administrator of 5050 km2 of dry and humid tropical forests, wetlands and swamps; through activities related to integrated water management. Guided tourist activities will be carried out, such as boat trips through the rivers and canals of the Amazon, visits to local communities and excursions to the jungle to learn about integrated water management and the importance of biodiversity. In addition, training and education programs will be developed for local inhabitants so that they can actively participate in the promotion and management of sustainable tourism.
The project will have the collaboration of experts in sustainable tourism and water management, as well as the active participation of local communities and non-governmental organizations. The project is expected to contribute to the conservation of biodiversity and aquatic ecosystems in the Colombian Amazon and generate income for the local community through sustainable tourism.
In short, this ecotourism promotion project based on integrated water management in the Colombian Amazon is an opportunity to promote biodiversity conservation and generate income for the local community. Through guided tourist activities and training programs, it seeks to sensitize visitors about the importance of integrated water management and promote sustainable tourism in the region.
