Some people may ask what this has to do with environmental education? Children cannot learn if they are freezing. While this doesn’t solve the problem we hope that it helps ease the bite of winter a little. #winter #children #collaboration

So we went to the market in Encarnacion and stocked up on warm hats and gloves. We managed to give out hats and gloves to 100 children across 5 communities - Ka’aguy Poty, Paraíso, Arasa Poty, Y’aka Marangatu and Manduvi’y.

The children in these communities do not have the option of getting the winter clothes out the back of the wardrobe and they really suffer in the cold, wearing the same clothes they do when it’s 40C+, because they have nothing else.

Actions like these makes a real difference in the lives of these children and we are so proud to be able to facilitate this generosity and help make things a little better for the community.

This week we took the big boxes of clothes up to the community and made sure that everyone received a wooly hat, warm shirt and some gloves to help them through the brutal winter months that are racing rapidly towards us.

Many residents alert us to where the monkeys are, where they've seen them passing, and how many they saw. By learning more about the urban monkeys we are looking to find robust measures that can be implemented to improve human-primate coexistence and create a more protected environment for them.

Although it's a sad story, at Para La Tierra we work on studying this species at the ecological, behavioural, and social levels to continue understanding their adaptations to the urban environment.
