Twinship between Omora Ethnobotanical Park and Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park |
|
| The President of Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park Authority, prof. Guido De Zordo, has signed the agreement protocol with the University of Magallanes (Punta Arenas) and Omora Ethnobotanical Park (Puerto Williams - Isla Navarrino). The initiative was promoted thanks to the commitment by the Councilor of Regione Veneto, arch. Oscar De Bona, within the activities to keep alive the link between Italy and our emigrants in Latin America. The agreement includes scientific and cultural exchanges between the two areas of great naturalistic and geographical value which, although far one from the other, have several similar ecological features. The initiative is also important to provide more opportunities to discover modern activities of compatible development in a national park for a small community of 2,000 people living a few steps from Cape Horn and the Antarctic ice cap.
