Field classes, what could be better?

Report 17

Dear Family/Donors,

In this report we will get back to our Master Grantees and their adventures in the field during the Master Class on Conservation Biology.

 Just to remind you all:

 Master grantees of 2022

- Harrison   environmental manager)

- Lillian  (environmental manager)

Our master students are right now at Pontal do Paranapanema Region, where we can find the biggest remnant of Inland Atlantic Forest in southeast Brazil. – The Morro do Diabo State Park. In this place, IPÊ has conducted more than 30 years of research on socioenvironmental themes.

Our Master Program has a field class named Conservation Biology, coordinated by our founder Dr. Claudio Padua. In this class, the students can visit all the IPÊ´s projects in the region and learn from this experience.

They see consolidated forest corridors, they see community nurseries that will be used to restoration, they see endangered species in the field, they experience the impacts on the local people and landscape.

After this field class our students understand much better how a long-term socioenvironmental project can change scenarios and realities. This is the goal of our school - ESCAS – to join people and to catalyze this change.

 Lilian and Harrison are having a great time of experiential learning and after that, they will be more conscious about their own change power.

 Let’s travel a little inside the people and habitats of this rich region in Brazil!

 Thank you all for your support. Share with you friends and help us with our social and environmental impacts.

 I would love to receive your feedbacks and comments. Please, write me if you have any questions or wish more information.
