Takes part in
- 10:10–11:10 Panel Panel 1 — The Andean Forest
To examine the strategic role of the region's forest ecosystems as the basis for concrete climate solutions that combine active conservation with sustainable development. The panel will review restoration and conservation cases at Las Vertientes, the outlook for ARR (afforestation, reforestation, and revegetation) projects in Chubut, and the technological innovation of the biochar pilot as an option for carbon capture, soil improvement, and preventive management of forest biomass. It will also incorporate the perspective of the ProCLIM-AR project on climate resilience and biodiversity. The panel will explore how the coordination of private, third-sector, and scientific and technological initiatives with public policy makes it possible to protect natural heritage, technically validate the generation of environmental assets, and consolidate new green investment opportunities for the region.
Recordings will be available on the YouTube channel of the Province of Chubut once the event has concluded.
