The network organizes
international workshops and conferences to integrate the participants
and consolidate the processes of exchange of information between
countries.The idea is to keep a continuous communication between the
members. It is important to be able to rely on updated information
about the processes that countries are developing to conserve and
elevate the level of efficiency of the protected areas. These meetings
are maintained with the support of organizations such as the German
Agency for Technical Cooperation (GTZ), the Amazon Cooperation Treaty (OTCA),
the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation and the Embassy of Holland in
Colombia.
In June 2005, a group

financially supported by the Gordon and Betty Moore foundation, (GBMF),
