In
the environment field, AGAPE OF El SALVADOR has developed a series
of initiatives aiming at the generalized environmental situation
of the country, through the implementation of programmes furthering
the protection and conservation of natural resources.
These
activities started in 1997, with the project for the conservation
of the water reserves of the natural park belonging to ASOCIACION
AGAPE DE EL SALVADOR, in the farm "La Plegada", which
stem from the Quequesquillo river, a mainstream very important for
the domestic uses of its waters, as well as for agriculture, the
economic basic activity of these communities.
AGAPE OF EL SALVADOR
has worked in this area for three consecutive years, achieving positive
impact with the reforestation works carried out, using native species,
as well as with the implementation of organic agriculture projects,
getting small farmers involved in order to reduce the levels of
pollution in the water reserves. Even more important was the implementation
of projects of soil and water conservation resulting in growing
clean water reserves.
