According to the Second Report on the Foundation Sector in our country (last June), there are more than 29 million final and direct beneficiaries of the activities of the 14,000 organizations registered in Spain, and the foundations mobilize more than 108,000 volunteers annually, to which must be added some 70,000 trustees. <\/p>\n<p>  About 10% of the foundations have as their main purpose the defense of the environment. Of these, only the 16 that make up the Association of Foundations for the Conservation of Nature mobilise more than 82,000 people, of which almost 6,000 are volunteers. <\/p>\n<p>  At the meeting held, Federico Ramos was accompanied by the Director General of Environmental Quality and Assessment and the Natural Environment, Guillermina Yanguas, and by the Director of the Biodiversity Foundation, an entity dependent on the Ministry, Sonia Casta\u00f1eda.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-97859665","notas_de_prensa","type-notas_de_prensa","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
