Presence that has been confirmed for the current Gold Level Criteria verification period. In addition, the project generates benefits at the level of adaptation through the implementation of agroforestry systems in areas of reduced risk, using species that provide organic matter, prevent erosion, favor the labeling of the soil, etc. so that they are less susceptible to being affected by phenomena related to climate change and are viable alternatives for sustainability for the population. To the end of this period we have 1250 ha of agroforestry systems and a total of 358 beneficiaries.

ESE’EJA NATIVE COMMUNITY OF INFIERNO Peru Equator Initiative Case Studies Local sustainable development solutions for people, nature, and resilient communities UNDP EQUATOR INITIATIVE CASE STUDY SERIES Local and indigenous communities across the world are advancing innovative sustainable development solutions that work for people and for nature. Few publications or case studies tell the full story of how such initiatives evolve, the breadth of their impacts, or how they change over time. Fewer still have undertaken to tell these stories with community practitioners themselves guiding the narrative. To mark its 10-year anniversary, the Equator Initiative aims to fill this gap. The following case study is one in a growing series that details the work of Equator Prize winners – vetted and peer-reviewed best practices in community-based environmental conservation and sustainable livelihoods. These cases are intended to inspire the policy dialogue needed to take local success to scale, to improve the global knowledge base on local environment and development solutions, and to serve as models for replication. Case studies are best viewed and understood with reference to ‘The Power of Local Action: Lessons from 10 Years of the Equator Prize’, a compendium of lessons learned and policy guidance that draws from the case material.

The cestodes were evaluated morphologically and molecularly. A fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 gene (cox1) was used as a genetic marker. All the cestodes were identified as Taenia omissa. In the present report, we give a brief description by molecular and morphological diagnosis of the cestodes and compare nucleotide sequences with previous isolates from GenBank. Upon comparison, the sequences showed a difference in thecox1 gene of 5.1 to 5.3% with other teniids sequences. This finding constitutes the first report of T.

TRIBES OF EASTERN BOLIVIA AND THE MADEIRA HEADWATERS By Alfred Metraux THE CHIQUITOANS AND OTHER TRIBES OF THE PROVINCE OF CHIQUITOS TRIBAL DIVISIONS AND LANGUAGES It is extremely difficult to obtain a clear picture of the linguistic affili- ations or even of the exact locations of the tribes of the region known as the Province of Chiquitos, bordered on the south by the Chaco desert, on the east by the Paraguay River and by the marshes of its upper course, on the west by the Rio Grande (Guapay River), and on the north by a line more or less corresponding to lat. 15° W. (map 1, No. 2 ; map 4). The chronicles of the Conquest, the official documents and reports of local authorities, and later the letters and accounts of the Jesuits teem with names of tribes and subtribes, but seldom mention their linguistic affiliation and even their location. From the beginning of the Conquest, the Indians of the area just defined have been called Chiquito, "the small ones," irrespective of their linguistic family or culture.

Information from this publication may be reproduced, but preferably with the prior permission of the Proyecto Mono Tocón association. he year 2013 has again been a year with much expansion of the activities of Proyecto Mono Tocón. Despite all efforts by local communities, authorities and non-governmental organisations, the T situation of the San Martin titi monkey (Callicebus oenanthe) is critical. There is an ever increasing human pressure on its habitat and little of its forest remains. We are supporting several local communities with the conservation of their forest, home of the San Martin titi monkey. But the question that keeps us occupied is if this is enough to safe the species from extinction. Without more political involvement, it will be very difficult to create safe havens for viable populations of titi monkeys. The Regional Government of San Martin will have to review their intentions for the territory and decide if it would not be better to change the designation of many thousands of hectares of production forest into in conservation areas. Our conservation work concentrates on the Central Huallaga area, as this is the region where we still can find the titi monkey’s habitat and maybe even more important, local communities that want to protect their forest. To better understand the needs of the titi monkeys, we have started in 2013 several long term research programmes, focussing on titi monkey densities in different types of forest and on behaviour.

Reproduction of any part of the text or images contained in this document is prohibited without the written consent of Donald J. Brightsmith. 1 Executive summary Many birds and mammals throughout the world consume soil. Recent studies have suggested that the western Amazon basin and specifically the Department of Madre de Dios, Peru have very high numbers of these soil consumption sites. In this region, soil consumption is common among birds (parrots, guans, and pigeons) and mammals (ungulates, rodents, and primates). Many of these species belong to families with large numbers of threatened and endangered species (parrots, guans, and primates). Other species play important roles in seed dispersal or play keystone roles in tropical forest dynamics (ungulates and large primates).

[email protected] 4*UniversitySan Luis Gonzaga de Ica, Ica-Perú[email protected] ABSTRACT The purpose of this research is to analyze the biodiversity of the river Chancay watershed using the Geo cities methodology, in particular it introduces a different strategy to evaluate the biodiversity of a city by adapting the Geo cities methodology to a more extensive scope. The study found that floristic biodiversity in the River Chancay-Lambayeque watershed corresponds to a total of 113 species, comprised in 104 genera and 53 families. Of which 5 tree species, 2 shrubs and 1 herbaceous are threatened. Regarding wildlife, 37 species have been registered, of which 6 are threatened. The study shows that the GEO methodology for diagnosing threatened species in urban areas could be used in non-urban areas. By other hand, eight species of flora and six of threatened fauna were found in the Chancay - Lambayeque Valley. KEYWORDS: Biological diversity, Biodiversity, GEO methodology, threatened species, species categorization, inventory. INTRODUCTION The Convention on Biological Diversity (UN, 1992) states that biodiversity term includes the variability of living organisms from any source and that must be included the ecosystems, interspecific and intraspecific variability.

In 2018 the Board held 57 meetings. 2. Transparency and Social Responsibility Transparency and efficiency characterize the Central Reserve Bank of Peru (BCRP) in all of its monetary policy actions. Monetary policy decisions are taken in accordance with the BCRP independence and informed to the public through various communication channels. 2.1 Transparency The Board of BCRP informs the public about monetary policy decisions through the Monetary Program Communiqués released each month. These communiqués are published on the BCRP website and its social media sites, disseminated through press releases, and emailed to subscribers. Teleconferences are also held with the media to inform the public about these decisions. In 2018, the Inflation Report was published in the months of March, June, September, and December. This report contains the BCRP analysis of economic developments, explains monetary policy actions, discusses the evolution of prices, and provides forecasts on inflation and the main macroeconomic variables each quarter of the year. The Inflation Report is published on the BCRP website and discussed in presentations to representatives of the financial system, economic analysts, the media, authorities, and business and academia representatives, both in Lima and in several cities of the country.
