More than 50% of the country is characterized by ecosystems with good or excellent conservation status.<\/strong><\/p><p>The core objective of the Bolivian System of Protected Areas is to maintain representative samples of the bio-geographic provinces. This is done through the implementation of policies, strategies, plans, programs and regulations in order to generate sustainable processes within the protected areas. These processes need to conserve biodiversity and integrate the partici- pation of local populations for the benefit of present and future generations. The mission of the Bolivian Service for Protected Areas (SERNAP) is to coordinate the functioning of the Bolivian System of Pro- tected Areas. It guarantees the integral management of the national protected areas in order to conserve biodiversity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-63f16f94 elementor-widget elementor-widget-philantrop_blockquote\" data-id=\"63f16f94\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"philantrop_blockquote.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n        <div class=\"philantrop_blockquote_widget\">\n            <div class=\"philantrop_blockquote philantrop_view_type_1\">\n                                    <div class=\"philantrop_blockquote_marker\">\n                        <svg width=\"80\" height=\"51\" viewBox=\"0 0 80 51\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n                            <path d=\"M1.59926 15.1672C-0.707019 23.9092 3.83703 32.8938 11.9169 36.2105L11.0299 45.9089L10.8037 48.3816L12.6805 46.7558L24.6604 36.3779C29.7597 34.4259 33.8859 30.092 35.4007 24.3501C37.8956 14.8932 32.3741 5.15258 23.0321 2.61015C13.6839 0.0660458 4.09558 5.70473 1.59926 15.1672Z\" stroke-width=\"2\"\/>\n                            <path d=\"M43.6183 14.16C41.2344 22.9307 45.9405 31.9114 54.2469 35.2175L53.3339 44.9062L53.1049 47.3361L54.9731 45.7654L67.3216 35.3827C72.5659 33.4371 76.8178 29.1109 78.3817 23.3573C80.9597 13.8723 75.2461 4.14186 65.6542 1.60821C56.0675 -0.924073 46.1949 4.68065 43.6183 14.16Z\" stroke-width=\"2\"\/>\n                        <\/svg>\n                    <\/div>\n\n                    FUNDESNAP\u2019s mission is to contribute to the development and sustainability of the National System of Protected Areas by raising, channelling, and managing financial and non-financial resources for the implementation of\n\nprograms, projects and activities, integrating the different sectors of Bolivian society.            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-147f2b32 elementor-widget elementor-widget-philantrop_blockquote\" data-id=\"147f2b32\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"philantrop_blockquote.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n        <div class=\"philantrop_blockquote_widget\">\n            <div class=\"philantrop_blockquote philantrop_view_type_3\">\n                                        <div class=\"philantrop_blockquote_cont\">\n                            The company\u2019s aim is to ensure that their presence in the area produces sustainable improvements in the neighbouring communities and that the gas pipeline generates the least possible impact on the sensitive ecosystems.
