Work with different actors at the local, national, and international levels, to contribute to the design of a fiber value chain that can trigger the activity. The work will consist of the identification of key public and private actors in order to provide tools for the commercialization of the product. The activities that will be developed in this stage of the project include meetings with the textile sector, application authorities, and various important local actors in this area.

The annual shearing of guanacos by the Payún Matrú Cooperative is being closely supervised by the Mendoza Department of Renewable Natural Resources to ensure that the potential economic income provided by guanaco wool is feasible and sustainable. At the same time, Cooperative members understand that by making "good practices" they receive "good benefits". CONICET has tested and developed methods for minimizing the stress of individual guanacos during capture and handling, that reduce negative impacts at the population level.  Our knowledge of ecological, physiological, and behavioral processes that "constrain" these camelids in La Payunia, based on more than 10 years of study, put us in a unique position for advising and teaching the cooperative and government stakeholders how to minimize impacts of live shearing on this population. We will continue training members of Payún Matrú Cooperative in "good practices" to make capture and shearing of wild guanacos within Wildlife Friendly Actions. The following activities will be carried out at this stage:

Follow-up missions to these agreements have enabled us to ascertain the level of their implementation and to initiate new partnerships. Several worship initiatives in the PNC have been carried out to seek cures, drive away evil spirits and solicit professional promotions. In all, 30 access agreements for the worship of sacred sites were signed in the localities of Nassian, Bouna and Tehini.A workshop was organized to take stock of worship activities carried out at sacred sites within the PNC by communities in each sector, to identify the advantages and difficulties associated with the implementation of the convention for access to sacred sites within the PNC, to provide the OIPR with an annual calendar of worship activities, and to formulate recommendations for improving collaboration between the signatories of this convention. The review workshop took place on December 20, 2023, in the meeting room of the Koutouba Sub-Prefecture. It brought together the Sub-Prefects of Tehini, Nassian, Kotouba and Bouna. The meeting was also attended by representatives of the villages that have signed the conventions, OIPR officials and a representative of the technical partner (GIZ/Pro2GRN).

Following the signing of access agreements to the PNC for the worship of sacred sites, and after months of implementation, a monitoring mission was carried out in the field to identify any difficulties encountered in implementing the agreements and how to remedy them, the planning of visits to sacred sites in the PNC by all partner villages, and the situation of villages that had not made any visits. In addition to this follow-up mission, discussions were held with the customary authorities of villages bordering the Tehini sector, to gather information on the possibility of extending the access agreement to sacred sites in this sector. Twenty (20) sacred sites have been inventoried in collaboration with communities in seven (07) villages in the Tehini sector, where certain communities have expressed the need to access sacred sites within the PNC for their worship. This mission was led by the OIPR/DZNE (the Chargé d'Etudes at the DZNE, the Chiefs of the Bouna, Nassian and Tehini sectors, rural animators and community relays from the sectors concerned) and the Biodiversity Expert from GIZ/Pro2GRN.

1.  Drone Monitoring
   Since 2017, the project has assigned dedicated drone monitoring teams to each elephant herd or individual active outside protected areas. Each team operates around the clock and currently includes over 70 trained personnel, all capable of locating elephants quickly and accurately.
2.  Infrared Camera Monitoring
   To address the limits of drone coverage—such as shift changes and blind spots at night—the project deployed a custom infrared monitoring system. A total of 600 infrared cameras with real-time data transmission, 21 video cameras, and 177 smart broadcasting devices have been installed in key zones, including roads, elephant corridors, and villages.
   Deployment is based on elephant activity hotspots. This supports space-use planning and the safe coexistence of people and elephants, while also informing corridor design and habitat protection. It aligns closely with GBF Targets 1 and 4 by applying technology to biodiversity management and species conservation.In addition, the project is exploring options for recycling and reusing monitoring equipment to ensure long-term ecological and environmental sustainability.

Due to their location near forests that protect water sources and public and private reserves, many agricultural productions are vulnerable to human-wildlife conflicts (HWCs). This vulnerability, combined with a lack or inadequacy of farm planning and the prevalence of outdated livestock management practices, puts at risk productivity in these mountain systems, biodiversity conservation, water resources, and associated ecosystem services

We include renewable energy technologies such us solar panels  to power electic fences, improve livestoc water availability and sensored lights to mitigate economical loses in livestoc farms caused by predation over domestic animales, at the same time, we help rural farmer families to access electricity serveces and improve their food productivity, economicla and food founts

According to IUCN guidelines for coexistence with wildlife, educational approaches are more effective when focused on promoting behavioral change towards wildlife. This can be achieved through well-designed processes targeting key stakeholder groups and addressing specific actions—such as the killing of jaguars or their potential prey, or the implementation of changes in production systems—within a defined time frame.

This approach is grounded in the Theory of Planned Behavior, which posits that human actions are influenced by intentions, which in turn are shaped by attitudes, subjective (or social) norms, and perceived behavioral control.

Our objective is to develop educational strategies for jaguar conservation that focus on these three key determinants of human behavior. In this way, we aim not only to ensure structural but also functional connectivity for the jaguar by promoting a culture of coexistence with other forms of life

We develop wildcats and potential prey community based monitoring with the families associated with Serraniagua in their private natural reserves by employing a small set of five trap cameras.

Different from most monitoring that only focuses on the species themselves and ignores human impact. By using the gradient boosting decision tree model, the most important factors affecting human utilization were identified, and suggestions on how to effectively control and make decisions were proposed at the management level. Research has found that altitude, maximum vocal pressure level, total vocal duration, and NDVI are the main factors affecting bird richness and activity, while temperature, total vocal duration, maximum vocal pressure level, NDVI, and altitude are the main factors affecting bird activity. Compared to bird richness, selecting parameters can better explain changes in bird activity, which may be related to the fact that activity is a timely feedback of bird behavior choices, adaptability, and quality of life, while richness is more influenced by long-term factors such as habitat suitability and resource abundance. Thus accurately assessing the impact of human noise on bird richness and activity. Therefore, the project has great significance in implementing human impact control on protected areas, and can provide more accurate guidance for the control of protected areas(Figure below). 

By using acoustic event scene detection technology, the richness and activity characteristics of birds were identified. We have achieved higher temporal accuracy (daily, quarterly, annual) and longer time series observation and disclosure of biodiversity characteristics(Figure below). As shown in the figure, it reveals the ranking of bird song heat in different months, the differences in bird richness at different time points of the day, and the continuous song heat map of the orange winged babbler for six months.
