The project involves researching the diversity of wildlife and, based on the results, conducting environmental education activities for sustainable development aimed at a general audience. Additionally, it includes dissemination, documentation, and support for academic tasks to preserve knowledge about the ecosystems in our country and their biodiversity. The goal is to promote respect for nature and environmental conservation. These activities also serve as a foundation for training professionals dedicated to the conservation and sustainable use of natural resources through scientific research, publications, and participation in environmental education events.
