Program
Tenio Planting Initiative
The Tenio Natural Reserve was founded in 2006 for the protection and management of the "Reserva Natural de Tenios." TNR works with a number of local and international partners to develop the majority of the area into a private reserve, open to the general public for education and research. The emphasis in 2008-2010 will be on fostering local economic and educational development by integrating community members into our efforts. The project will also address the planning and development of an educational campground dedicated to regional ecosystems. Located on the peninsula south of Puerto Montt, between I-5 and the coastal route, Putenio is located in the heart of the remaining rain forests of the region.
