iEat Green - 06.16.22 - Raul Nieto
Raul Nieto, is a biologist and the director of The ITAPOA PROJECT based
in the Choco region of Colombia and Ecuador.
He has been working on this project since 1989. The ITAPOA PROJECT
conbines scientific research, conservation and culture of the region. The goal
of the project is to save habitat for amphibians in danger of extinction thru
doing research, helping people cultivate organic cacao in deforested areas in
order to get a better profit and to stop selling the primary forest trees to
logging companies. They are planting African palms and trying to stop the
growing of illicit crops, while building cattle ranches for livestock.
They are making chocolate from the cacao, along with other products, and
working to find markets for the products.
Another goal of the project is to help connect the culture and musical culture
of the region to their environment.
