23 February 2010. Voz Natura is an environmental education program developed by the Santiago Rey Fernández-Latorre Foundation created in 1997. Its main goal is to involve the community of Galicia in the recovery and protection of its wildlife and habitats.
Since its creation, various types of environmental projects have been developed and carried out: reforestations and plantations, cleaning and rehabilitation of degraded areas (beaches, rivers etc.), recycling-reduction-reuse and waste treatment projects, fauna and flora protection, together with research and studies on sustainability.
Voz Natura has managed to involve different target groups including children and youth, parents, teachers and even local authorities and organizations. For the International Year of Biodiversity, it wants to celebrate its 1,899 environmental projects carried out since 1997, as well as its network of 260 educational centres including 44,967 students and 2,435 teachers who work actively in protecting the environment.
