ChacoResa
"ChacoResa" is a website that presents information on deforestation in the Chaco area. The website allows for an interactive visualization of deforested areas in Paraguay from 2011 to 2015 and displays information about the responsible authorities in the respective regions. In addition, it displays government decrees on protected zones related to deforested areas. The initiative, promoted by a group of citizens interested in the subject, was responsible for collecting quantitative and qualitative data from different governmental and non-governmental sources, which it then presented to citizens in a user-friendly manner. Its overall intention is to monitor deforestation in Paraguay.
