Protect Malpelo - Project Silky was created by Biodiversity conservation Colombia to protect and preserve the ecosystem of the Sanctuary of fauna and flora Malpelo.
In 2016 we took on the challenge to build a project that would allow Malpelo’s fauna to be protected from the threat of illegal fishing, which was leaving its ecosystem weaker by the year. Malpelo’s extreme conditions present a challenge for anyone to stay for long periods of time.
nevertheless, we have developed and achieved a sustainable and efficient strategy that would allow for constant stay and surveillance, thus leaving no ground for further destruction of this pristine area.
