“The name Rewilding Chile promotes the idea that we will bring back species where they have gone missing. Where the gems of the country haven't been protected, we will help protect them in perpetuity."
Rewilding means helping nature heal, giving space back to wildlife and returning wildlife back to the land, as well as to the seas.

Community outreach
Route of Parks of Chilean Patagonia
We crafted the vision for the Route of Parks of Chilean Patagonia in 2014, bringing to life this regionally-focused project with the belief that conservation-based tourism could be a powerful economic engine for local communities.
