Artistic initiatives promote biodiversity in Peru and Argentina

In Amarilis, Peru, approximately 40 students from the Rósulo Soto Castillo and Javier Pulgar Vidal educational institutions have begun a regional mural competition. The event focuses on the conservation of Huánuco's wild flora and fauna as part of the 2026 National Forestry Week. Organized by the Regional Directorate of Agriculture's Forestry and Wildlife Management Unit in collaboration with the Municipality of Amarilis, the initiative aims to strengthen environmental education and raise public awareness regarding the preservation of regional natural resources.

In San Juan, Argentina, the Anchipurac Environmental Training Center is hosting an art exhibition titled “Flora y fauna de San Juan.” The showcase features 20 oil paintings by 13 different artists, designed to connect art with environmental education. The exhibition seeks to encourage visitors to recognize and value the local natural environment through artistic representation and will remain open to the public through December 2026.
