OpEPA is a Colombian non-profit organization that reconnects children and youth with the Earth so that they act in an environmentally sustainable manner. Through this reconnection, children and youth may become agents in reducing environmental degradation and promoting a more sustainable generation of decision makers. Their educational experiences integrate ecological, social, economic, and cultural aspects, producing attitudes and actions directed to preserve the environment. OpEPA aims to promote a better understanding and enjoyment of the cultural, ethnic and natural diversity of our world, and to create an awareness of the necessity of preserving this diversity. KGNU’s Elena Klaver spoke with Mateo.
