Conserving Iberá

Conserving Iberá is a film about the conservation work that has taken place over the last few decades to restore the Iberá wetlands of northern Argentina. In this inspiring interview with Kris Tompkins, she tells the story of how her organization Tompkins Conservation has restored and rewilded the land, bringing back extirpated species and involving local communities in the conservation of the region. With beautiful imagery of the biodiversity and landscapes, and through Kris's words, it speaks to how we can do our part in helping ensure important ecosystems remain protected.
