Fundación EcoMinga

EcoMinga Foundation is a non-profit, Ecuadorian non-governmental organization dedicated to the protection of areas with high levels of endemism and biological diversity. The organization achieves this through the creation of a network of private nature reserves focused on the conservation of species that are globally at risk of extinction. Currently, EcoMinga manages 15 reserves totaling over 12,000 hectares across Ecuador's most biodiverse regions, including cloud forests and páramos. EcoMinga's mission is to lead the conservation of endemic and threatened species by creating protected areas based on scientific research, while promoting sustainable development for communities living near these conservation areas.
