Andean forests are one of the most vulnerable ecosystems in Peru. They are also areas of high biodiversity and provide important ecosystem services. In Abancay, our seven Guardian communities are working hard, with the support of Landscape Partners CEDES and Caritas, to keep their forests standing in the face of fires and agricultural deforestation.
