Guyra Paraguay
PARAGUAY - The non-governmental organization Guyra Paraguays mission is to lead, promote and coordinate progress towards the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity, with a special focus on birds, through advocacy, research, public awareness and active community participation. We aim to become an authority on Paraguayan biodiversity, with a particular focus on birds and their habitats, and to act as a catalyst for increased community participation in nature conservation.
Guyra Paraguy works in San Rafael Reserve, El Pantanal, La Baha de Asuncin, Lagunas Saladas, and the Chaca Humedo. We believe that social commitment is indispensable for our conservation work and contribute to a better quality of life for the population by promoting research and sustainable development. The personal commitment of each member of Guyra Paraguay employees, directors, members, partners or friends, is in the attainment of the principles that inspire our cause. Therefore we constantly encourage the spirit of team work in alliance with other organizations, and identify all those who conform to the principles of quality, professional ethics and excellence of Guyra Paraguay, so that our endeavours are always based on information that is scientific, truthful and opportune for the harmonic and sustainable development of the country and the region.
