“The most important part of the deforestation reduction strategy that we have been implementing in the department of Caquetá is our efforts to reclaim the ancestral knowledge of ethnic and peasant groups related to forests, as well as aligning the different national, territorial and institutional planning tools with sustainable forest management to generate a forest economy framed in green growth. Together, the efforts of the national, regional, departmental and local government are aligned to reduce deforestation with the support of the international community, NGOs and, most importantly, the civil society of the Department.”
—Lorenzo Andrés Vargas Gutiérrez, Advisor to the Governor of Caquetá
