Our journey
Natura Mundis was born in Córdoba with a simple conviction: Argentina's nature deserves to be known, respected, and protected. What started as a local outreach project became a community that today works across more than twelve provinces, with allies in universities, nature reserves, and rural schools.
2016 · The first steps
With a team of four people and a borrowed pickup truck, we traveled through the region's watersheds to document the state of native forests and waterways. That first census, which lasted eight months, became the foundation of our first educational materials and the starting point of a methodology we still use: listening to communities before proposing any action.
2019 · The key decision
After three years of regional work, we understood that fragmentation was our biggest obstacle. We decided to stop operating only in Córdoba and create alliances with park rangers, teachers, and producers from other provinces. That year we added the first nodes in Mendoza, Neuquén, and Misiones, and published our first wetlands guide, which is now used in more than forty schools.
2021 · Consolidation and learning
The fire that affected more than 80,000 hectares in the Paraná Delta deeply marked us. We organized an emergency campaign that mobilized more than 300 volunteers and taught us that conservation is also about rapid response. That experience redefined our action protocols and led us to create an emergency response fund for environmental crises, managed transparently and audited every year.
2023 · Sustained growth
We launched a program that trains residents and rural dwellers to record wildlife sightings, water quality, and changes in vegetation. Today, more than 1,200 people actively participate, and their data feeds reports we share with provincial agencies. This project confirmed that local knowledge is as valuable as any technical study.
2025 · The present
Today Natura Mundis coordinates projects in fourteen provinces, maintains alliances with six nature reserves, and publishes materials that reach more than 200,000 people each year. We are not a large organization, but we learned that persistence and direct connection with communities produce real change. Our next challenge is to consolidate a training program for young park rangers and continue expanding the monitoring network toward the north of the country.
The team behind Natura Mundis
Each team member brings a different perspective: field biology, protected area management, environmental communication, and work with rural communities. That combination is what sustains the projects we document.
Research coordinator
Biologist graduated from the National University of Córdoba. She worked for eight years monitoring wetlands in the Iberá region and restoring riparian forests in northern Santa Fe.
At Natura Mundis, she leads field data verification and liaises with the technical teams of each province.
Conservation specialist
Agricultural engineer with experience in managing protected natural areas in Mendoza and Neuquén. He participated in invasive species control programs and biological corridor planning.
He provides the practical reading of ecosystems: what works on the ground and what needs adjustments.
Communication and territory
Degree in social communication, with experience in environmental education projects in Santiago del Estero and Chaco. She coordinates connections with rural schools and grassroots organizations.
She translates technical reports into materials that communities can use and adapt.
Projects are not put together at a desk. Each survey involves field trips, interviews with local residents, and review of official data. Before publishing any material, the team cross-checks it with local sources and available bibliography.
That process explains why Natura Mundis reports often cite specific cases: a watershed, a park, a community. We prefer to show evidence rather than generalize.
Our identity
We are a team of people working at the intersection of environmental outreach and concrete action on the ground. We are not here to promise magical solutions, but to share knowledge, support processes, and bring visibility to real conservation experiences in Argentina.
Natura Mundis was born in Córdoba, from conversations among biologists, teachers, and neighbors who shared a common concern: the gap between scientific information and people's daily lives. We started with talks in schools and open field trips, and over time we built a network that today spans several provinces.
We are not a large organization, nor do we aspire to be one. We prefer to work with small groups, with sustained relationships, and with projects you can get your hands on.
Our work is aimed at teachers looking for reliable materials for their classrooms, rural communities that need support to manage their natural resources, and urban dwellers who want to understand what is happening with the country's forests, wetlands, and rivers.
We also collaborate with municipalities and grassroots organizations that need clear data to make decisions. Each project starts from a specific question, not from a pre-packaged program.
We use a direct tone, without unnecessary jargon and without drama. We believe environmental information can be rigorous and accessible at the same time. We avoid empty labels and grand promises; we prefer to show data, processes, and concrete results.
When we publish an article or prepare a workshop, we first think about who will read it and what decision it might help them make. That is the compass guiding every piece of text we produce.
We work with three ideas that act as a filter for every project: respect for local knowledge, honesty about what we know and what we don't, and the conviction that lasting change is built with patience and trusting relationships.
Our story continues to be written in every visit to a school, in every field survey, and in every conversation with those who care for the land. If you'd like to learn more about our projects or join an initiative, write to us at info@naturamundis.com.
