Project Details
Description
Colombia lacks literature with local content on paleontology topics that would enable scientific dissemination and serve as tools for teaching evolution in schools and colleges, showcasing the past history of our biodiversity and its environment. All of this is key to strengthening the appreciation and protection of paleontological heritage and its national and international visibility.
