- Native plants production and forest restoration. Parana Delta Biosphere Reserve: a sustainable alternative for islander community
I am a biologist, science teacher and environmental education researcher. I focus my work in the Paraná river Delta. Our group is involved in the creation of the Delta Wetlands Observatory, an organization which produces useful knowledge regarding local environmental conflicts. I am involved in education and teacher training for the protection and ecological restoration of Parana Delta wetlands and native forests.
