Estudio de creación de un centro sustentable de bioconocimientos de plantas nativas como fuente de reservorio de diversidad genética, productiva y cultural, del Gobierno Parroquial de Sevilla Don Bosco, Morona Santiago.

Abstract

In the present work a group of native plants existing in the forests of the parish Sevilla don Bosco was investigated, whose fundamental objective is the recovery of the Shuar ancestral knowledge, regarding the use of the endemic species of the Amazon region, so that the present and future generations recognize the importance of their responsible exploitation, which allows the next inhabitants to enjoy the species that provide different functionalities such as food, medicine and phytopharmaceuticals. For this, studies and designs of the physical spaces of a Bioknowledge Center were carried out, which represent an area of 4 total hectares for the implementation of this project, whose areas are: germplasm bank with an area of 140 square meters, administrative and knowledge transfer area with an area of 605 square meters, parking area with an area of 750 square meters, the remaining 38,505 square meters are made up of a total of 38,505 square meters, and a parking area with an area of 750 square meters. The remaining 38,505 square meters are made up of the botanical park visitation area, walkways, hydration and rest areas, lagoons and planting areas for endemic species, in other words, a great diversity of services. This research will facilitate the formulation of new proposals and sustainable alternatives regarding the process of management and implementation of a center of bio knowledge of native plants, revaluing the Shuar ancestral knowledge, which will allow to adapt and link new technologies to the productive processes, taking into account the conditions of the sector to be applied, which will constitute a direct contribution to the local productivity of the parish Sevilla Don Bosco.
