Chile
Since 1997, The Nature Conservancy has been collaborating with partners in Chile to conserve ecologically important lands and waters for people and for nature.
Remarkably, even though Chile has an extensive park system, many of its prized species aren't included in those boundaries. Because many of Chile's most biodiverse areas are located on private lands, the Conservancy has concentrated much of its work in Chile on private lands conservation.
22 landowners have donated their property to create a new park in Zapallar.
The Chile’s first poll on on environmental issues reveals surprises.
Established in 2010, this nature sanctuary is located approximately 25 miles from Santiago.
