Project DescriptionIn 1995 six representatives from the Brunca region founded UNAPROA, the Union of Friends for the Protection of the Environment. Most of the members are farmers and smallholders from some thirty villages, including indigenous communities whose lands lie on the western slopes of the Talamanca mountain range. Some of UNAPROA's projects include protection of the region's water basins, promotion of organic farming and ecotourism. Meetings are held regularly in the member-built office in the community of Finca Sonador. Every two years there is an international ecoforum.
