This new infrastructure will also contribute to the continuation of the activities of the Reforestation Project through schools in the Northwest. Recall that by the next academic year in November, environmental education will be definitively launched with its component concerning the reforestation project at school and the civic note to be awarded for the citizen actions of the pupil and which will be an integral part of his report card.
