Territory of awareness, creation and reconnection with nature.
Our territory aims to be a space of awareness, creation and reconnection with nature in which paradigms are broken and a change of attitude towards our natural being is generated.
Critical thinking about the environmental issues in which we are involved helps us to transform our actions and become agents of change.
The challenge we have as a human species is to seek a social and environmental welfare that allows our permanence on planet earth, as many of the living beings that have been here since the beginning of history have achieved.
This territory is located in the municipality of Puerto Colombia, in the department of Atlántico and has an approximate area of 4 hectares.
Ecologically it is located in an Ecotone, between the Mangrove ecosystems and the Tropical Dry Forest, which makes it an area of great biodiversity. In this forest matrix, there is an agroecological orchard for research and environmental and social education.
An area for the proper management of organic (compost) and inorganic waste. It has an edible forest of native and naturalized species as well as a laboratory for research in environmental sciences and food processing, in addition to rest areas, kiosks for academic activities, restrooms, among others.
