During the event (held at Corferias from 6 to 9 June 2012), we managed to establish contacts with various national and international environmental organizations to create potential partnerships work. The ProAves Foundation was also recognized for their hard work over the last 13 years for the conservation of our birds, at the same time noting that Colombia stands first place in the world for its great diversity with 1,889 species of birds.

The fair had a designated area for the promotion of Colombian environmental goods and services, as well as the Andean and Central American region. Similarly, there were several trade shows and academic programs in four thematic areas: climate change, cleaner production, responsible consumption and water resources.

In FIMA 2012, ProAves socialized with the attendants the number of ongoing projects that it has at a national level like: Alliance for Zero Extinction (AZE), Reciprocal Agreements for Water (ARAS) and the different corridors and conservation easements established in Colombia; also exposed the most outstanding achievements made ??during these 13 years in Conservation, Research, Environmental Education and Membership.
