The political ecology research group (GIEP for its acronym in Spanish) analyzes the impact of new public policies and changes in the production model on natural resources, as well as the consequences that they may have in rural areas from an economic, social and solidarity perspective.
It is also important to learn how these changes cause identity changes in young people’s relation with nature, especially in indigenous communities.
