Fundación ProAves hatched in 1998 out of the initiative of a group of dedicated Colombian conservationist interested in saving the Yellow-eared Parrot. ProAves’s mission is to protect birds and their habitats in Colombia through research, conservation actions and community outreach.

ProAves is a registered non-profit organization with free membership, open to all who share our vision to prevent the extinction of threatened species and protect key sites, with the help of citizens who are proud of their natural resources and who will promote development in harmony with nature.

The passion and commitment of the ProAves family thrives on our partnerships and collaboration with different individuals, groups and organizations, at local, regional and national levels, working together for conservation. Colombians have a great passion for nature and we are always encouraged to find communities eager and willing to cooperate.

ProAves Foundation is a UK registered charity that supports the work of Fundación ProAves in Colombia.
