Ethnobotanical Laboratory of Significance Part 2 Project 2017 Gonzalo Ibáñez University of Chile | Chile Faced with regional desertification, the Aymara ethnobotany emerges as an opportunity to heal the deteriorating landscape.

Thus, environmentally the proposal seeks to reduce desertification, while socio-culturally aims to strengthen the Aymara heritage with traditional productive activities. Tutor(s) Francisco Allard
