"Pedro Solano nos presenta desde una visión personal la historia de Ios últimos 50 años de la conservación en Loreto. Desde de la creación de la Reserva Nacional Pacaya-Samiria en 1972, pasando por el reconocimiento formal del Sistema Regional de Conservación de la Diversidad Biológica de Loreto en el 2018, la creación de áreas de conservación regional y los retos actuales, la publicación brinda un análisis y recopilación de información sin precedentes. Loreto Verde retrata la importancia de sumar esfuerzos de actores públicos y privados, para asi poder generar cambios de largo alcance en contextos de debilidad institucional como los que se dan en todo el pais. Nos deja lecciones aprendidas y retos para el futuro sin dejar de situar la historia de la conservación de Loreto en un contexto mayor, aportando hechos históricos y anecdéticos que facilitan su lectura. Finalmente, la publicacién contiene los testimonios de personas que han sido y son parte de esta historia de construcción participativa del sistema regional de conservacién de Loreto."--Page 4 of cover.
