The Citizen Action Dialogue developed at the Ramsar EFI site is a participatory tool under Colombian law and seeks to establish a consensus and fair dialogue between local and institutional actors and reach agreements on priority issues of the territory. In the preparation of the discussion, the capacities of indigenous people and peasants that make up the local Ramsar Bureau were strengthened, providing greater clarity regarding the context of the area. This process concluded with the signing of 24 binding agreements between the Ramsar Bureau and those convened, establishing a joint agenda for the verification of compliance and feedback of the agreements.
The discussion is a successful example of territorial governance, where the agreements between stakeholders and the Ramsar Bureau were aligned with the Environmental Management Plan, as well as with the management and monitoring agendas.
