About the Project

Spanning 1 million hectares of tropical forest, with approximately 90 communities inhabiting it, the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve, the second-largest tropical forest in the American continent, is in the midst of a transformation, facing the arrival of mega-projects and gentrification processes.
