YASUNI NATIONAL PARK

The Yasuní Intangible Reserve is one of the most biodiverse places on Earth, hosting over 2,000 plant species and more than 1,000 animal species within this protected area. Wildlife has found a home hidden among the deep jungles and rainforests of the Amazon.

Besides its incredible natural diversity, Yasuní is also home to the Waorani (or Wao) culture, including voluntarily isolated communities like the Tagaeri and Taromenani. The Waorani people have a deep connection with the land, living in harmony with the rich biodiversity that surrounds them. Their knowledge and traditions are integral to the preservation of this unique ecosystem.

Because of its immense value, importance, and relevance, the area is heavily protected, and all activities are strictly regulated to ensure the conservation of the reserve. By supporting projects that engage with local communities and contribute to the protection of the zone’s natural and cultural heritage, you can help prevent the loss of this natural wonder and the vibrant culture of the Wao rani people.
