The Parques Foundation, which has been operating since November, seeks to attract funds from small and large donors through specific campaigns on conservation and new protected areas, infrastructure, public use, environmental education and science and technology, which makes it possible to provide the National Parks Administration with greater autonomy in the management of resources from donations, encourage citizen participation and summon different actors from civil society, researchers, professionals and educators.
