We are a young association from Badajoz that works for the ENVIRONMENT. We carry out environmental education activities, scientific research to find out the status of threatened species and Biodiversity Conservation actions. We currently carry out an environmental education project in Extremadura, and we collaborate in a multidisciplinary micro-wetland conservation project, BIOASIS DEL SUR, with other conservation associations from the rest of the peninsula.
The project consists of creating a network of private farms that function as biodiversity hotspots in Extremadura. The initiative seeks to restore the local landscape using native species, creating suitable and connected habitats for fauna and flora, restoring vegetation in canals and streams, removing invasive species, and building refuges for various animal species. Among the project's most notable actions are the planting of Mediterranean species, the creation of artificial ponds to increase water and humidity, and the installation of refuges for mammals, birds, and insects. BioINNOVA embraces an educational and participatory approach, involving volunteers and farm owners, and has successfully planted more than 1,000 trees and shrubs in its first year of collaboration with other organizations. All of this contributes to the resilience of local ecosystems and fosters greater ecological connectivity in the region.
