Problem:

Nowadays more consciousness is still missing in our society, especially in the new generations, about the conservation of nature and eco-friendly science. Despite some workshops and training at educational institutions, we consider that working in our communities is important to create a society with a commitment to care for the planet. We have some public areas such as parks that these people use to recreate and why not also to learn and connect more with nature in the community?

Idea:

Our solution is to create a sustainable organization by the community that gives in-person workshops in the public area (park) to younger from 8 to 15 years old once a week that focuses on the conservation of the environment that is around us about our fauna, flora, and important abiotic components of nature also to promote eco-friendly science. The idea is to convert parks into learning spaces of conservation and promote science for all the younger people.

Main Beneficiaries:

Firstly, our nearby communities, like young people who live near a park, adult people (approximately 100 people) and with the progress of the organization more people are committed to our ideas. Finally, all Peruvian people (33.72 million)
