The participants showed enthusiasm and disposition during
the workshops sessions.
This shows one of the consequences of such workshops.
Participants understood that there are tasks that can not be
implemented without the help of Civil Society Organizations.
In this way, the network of those who share the San Quintín
Bay conservation dream is strengthen.
During the conviviality where acknowledgements were
handed over, we were able to understand one of the major
achievements of the workshop: everyone, including locals
and people from Terra Peninsular and Pro Esteros, value the
tranquility, flora, fauna and the feeling of enjoyment that San
Quintín Bay offers. We all want that this attributes remain here
for future generations to enjoy them.
The main objective of these workshops is the first step
towards the autonomous growth of La Chorera. We expect
that in the near future this community no longer needs the
help of Civil Society Organizations to solve their socio-environmental problems.
The intention of Terra Peninsular and Pro Esteros is to give
tools to our most important allies when it comes to conserving the bay: the locals. This means to be close to them while
growing, as well as to grow with them and to enjoy the process of creating new awareness on the use and conservation
of nature. All of this, to improve the life quality of the bay inhabitants.
