Afterwards through a joint partnership the government implemented actions to restore the degraded areas of affected ecosystems. This helped to recover the forest, generate sustainable activities through the use of natural resources and ecosystem services of the Bosque de Pomac Historic Sanctuary and develop, strengthen, and position tourism activity in the Natural Protected Area.
