Un Nuevo Modelo de \u00c1reas de Conservaci\u00f3n Regionales<\/span><\/h2>\n

One of my key reforms as <\/span>Minister of Environment<\/span><\/a> was reorganizing Costa Rica’s national park system and the forestry directorate into regional conservation areas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Inspired by UNESCO’s biosphere reserves<\/a>, this model has a core area of absolute protection, like national parks and biological reserves, owned by the state. Surrounding these core areas are buffer zones, mostly forest reserves that are privately owned. We combined the staff from the national park system and forestry directorate into this new system of 7 regional conservation areas, which still exists today and has been expanded to 11 areas.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>

Promoting Biodiversity and Eco-Tourism<\/h3>\n

The system was all about managing the conservation and sustainable management of wildlife, forest resources, protected areas, watersheds and water systems, together with actors in society, for the wellness of current and future generations. It focused on sustainability and included human populations as part of the solution. <\/span><\/p>\n

We embraced the concept of biodiversity and carried out detailed inventories of animal and plant species. <\/span>We also promoted eco-tourism, making Costa Rica a leader in tropical conservation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Today, Costa Rica is a top ecotourism destination, with many private conservation projects thriving. Examples include the Children\u2019s Rainforest<\/a> in the Monteverde area and efforts in the Maquenque area. Now, there are hundreds of private reserves that support and promote eco-tourism.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
