Visit to the Estación Biológica del Beni

July 18, 2025

The IEK-CHANGES team visited the Director of the Estación Biológica del Beni, Rolando Sánchez de la Vega, to explore possibilities for collaboration and joint work in the region. The Estación Biológica del Beni, a biosphere reserve in the Bolivian Amazon, is home to several Tsimane’ communities that the team will be visiting as part of the project. We are grateful to Director Sánchez de la Vega for warmly welcoming us and supporting our efforts to carry out respectful and collaborative research in the area.
