The native forests and wetlands of the La Plata River constitute an ecosystem with a unique biological diversity that provides essential environmental benefits for the population. These include flood regulation, mitigation and prevention of climate change that erodes the coasts, filtration of pollution, water supply and provision of food, materials and natural medicine.
Additionally, it is imperative to learn about this sort of nature in a holistic way, in terms of places that condense the identity of the local people, the memory of a shared history and the future expectations of life linked to these lands.

The conservation of these urban natural areas, the promotion of education and research into them, and activities such as agro-food production or ecological agriculture are also options to further their development and the progress of their communities.

The overarching question that is proposed here and which connects the various aspects of the exhibition is how we relate to nature in our urban environment: do we enjoy parks and reserves? Do we defend our right to enjoy green and public spaces? Do we commit ourselves, or are we indifferent to what happens there? 

The way we understand nature determines the way we act in it, and what happens in nature comes back to us impact our lives forever.
