Climate change and nature awareness

Awareness, through interactive activities in nature that sensitize and engage children and young people with actions that are visible in the environment and in the academy.

Ecotourism as a social practice and as a global trend is intended to become a local and regional trend to create environmental awareness. Because of not achieving a collective conscience every day, humanity will be affected by the progressive deterioration of nature and its irreversible disasters that will affect us all equally.

The competitors in Colombia and in the world would be all those organizations that are in the ecotourism field, which have advantages in the time of foundations, however we tend to achieve comprehensive objectives that will differentiate us in the offer.Moreove, in our center there is existence of springs that generates a natural environment in the middle of a tropical dry forest. This magical place of influence Mokaná,  with the rugged terrain and rocky paths that invite the admiration, contemplation and awareness of nature, as well as adventure, fun, sport and especially to integral active learning.

The center of ecological experiences, initially was a family farm, which given the same opinions of our family, friends and people that knew about it, we have given way to the organization with a purpose, which in addition to admiring nature, is believed the awareness and application of actions that tend to minimize negative impacts on nature. We are prepared with an agenda for schools and universities, with the understanding that children and young people, our present are the most receptive to these actions.
