On May 5 at the General Auditorium of the University of Azuay, the event "Knowing the biodiversity of Cuenca and the region" was held, the event was carried out by the School of Biology.
Dr. Rafaela Ansaloni, Vice Chancellor for Research and professor of the Biology major, began her presentation addressing students from Colegio Asunción, Colegio Alemán, Colegio Nuestra Familia, among others.
Our Vice Chancellor for Research highlighted the importance of the work carried out by the career since its foundation in 1989 in Cuenca. Also, another important point that was pointed out to young people who are interested in the career is the training of biologists who have contributed to the development of the area. Finally, Rafaela Ansaloni invited young people to join the race to commit to the protection of nature at a national and global level, because the professionals who leave the UDA are in different countries contributing with their knowledge.
Continuing with the event, biologists Nuvia Guzmán and Mayra Jiménez participated in the exhibition emphasizing plants in the fight against climate change and the crucial relationship of vegetation in our region. In short, the experts shared study information with the attendees, where they demonstrate the magnificent work that is carried out at the UDA.
Another part of the event was that of Doctor Antonio Crespo who took the floor to talk about ecological restoration and how to recover techniques from ecosystems, as examples the speaker gave some countries in his presentation: Crespo spoke of China and Costa Rica as successful examples in ecosystem restoration.
An important point that the UDA gave in this event is the participation of young people who had concerns, therefore, the talk was an opportunity to reflect together on the importance of continuous work in the preservation of ecosystems and the need to promote the training of new professionals committed to biodiversity, and the UDA, with its excellent planning at the School of Biology, can help you achieve this knowledge so that later in the world of work you can contribute with your learning.
