Costa Rica harbours an immense wealth of species diversity that rivals almost all of North America. It is a precious treasure that must be protected and guided for future generations. It is this urgent need that Forest for Children has decided to help fulfill. That's why it brings its experience and its Green Life and Blue Life programs to Costa Rica.

Within six months, a Czech volunteer and education centre and a 95 ha Green Life II forest reserve in Tausito were built in Costa Rica. Contributions will fund a building of solar electricity system, operation of the reserve, education centre and construction of additional infrastructure in the form of observation towers for security, animal observation and education. 

The Green Life II Reserve currently has 95 hectares, but planned expansions associated with the purchase of additional forests could reach hundreds of hectares. The reserve includes a volunteer and education centre for 12 people, but in the future we have a grand vision of building an international education centre for children and youth.
 

Surprisingly, Costa Rica does not have a complete protection of the underwater world and that is why we are coming up with the Eye of the Ocean project, which will also open the gates to volunteers.  Our goal is to monitor, research, educate and of course protect the ocean.
