Conservation International invites you to watch the video "Lessons Learned in the Eastern Tropical Pacific" available on YouTube (in Spanish with English sub-titles):

Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDTjRjYyhKg

Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1t9xTsuljY

The video presents conservation experiences in protected areas management, research and community engagement, patrolling, tourism, and sustainable business in the Eastern Tropical Pacific, which includes national waters of Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, and Costa Rica and is one of the most productive oceans in the world. The stories captured in the video represent only a small portion of the efforts that have been undertaken by environmental organizations, communities and governments to conserve this rich natural heritage. We hope the testimonies provide valuable insights to other marine conservation practitioners.
