"Andes Amazon Fund applauds the creation of the ‘Laderas Norte Reserva Natural
del Quebracho y el Cóndor en la Cordillera de Laderas,’ in Tarija, Bolivia. On
August 24, 2023, the city council of Tarija unanimously approved the creation
of a Municipal-Rural Protected Area within the Laderas Norte community,
realizing a years-long dream of its residents. With an extension of 8,145
acres (3,296 ha) of southern Bolivian forests, canyons, and valleys, the new
reserve presents an opportunity to protect the mighty Andean condor, safeguard
native plants and water sources, and improve the quality of life for the over
300 people living in the Laderas Norte community.
