The conservation program seeks the sustainable recovery of the population of the Caquetá Tití Monkey (Plecturocebus caquetensis), a critically endangered species in the Colombian Amazon basin, with a focus on the active participation of the Yucuna indigenous community. With a budget of US$75,000 and a scope of 9,800ha, the program will use telemetry technologies and camera traps for population monitoring, restore 9,800ha of habitat through reforestation with native species, implement educational workshops for the Yucuna community, and promote agricultural practices and sustainable fisheries. The expected results include a 20% increase in the population of the Caquetá Tití Monkey in 5 years, the recovery of 80% of the degraded habitat, and a 60% increase in the level of knowledge and active participation of the Yucuna community in conservation practices. conservation, with key performance indicators such as the number of individuals monitored, area of habitat restored, and a 25% reduction in unsustainable practices. This comprehensive approach will not only contribute to the conservation of an endangered species, but will also strengthen the ecological and cultural resilience of the Yucuna community, offering long-term benefits for both global biodiversity and local socioeconomic well-being.
