Project description

In this fieldwork, I aim to explore the views of campesinos living in páramo ecosystems in Sumapaz, Colombia, on humannature relationships, to then compare them with those expressed by EU projects aimed at protecting páramo national parks. If those visions considerably diverge, it could lead to the imposition of a reality by the EU on those campesinos, causing social injustices.
