Biologist and educator Yamid Eduardo Campos Umbarila (M.Sc. Environmental Sciences) leads "Caminatas Ecológicas Bogotá - Conexión Natural." Driven by the philosophy "Know to Conserve," he transforms High Andean forests, mystical paramos, and hidden waterfalls into "Living Laboratories." With 17+ years of expertise, Yamid specializes in wildlife sighting and ecological interpretation, using biophilia to foster deep environmental bonds. He believes that scientific understanding is the foundation of protection. By exploring Colombia's diverse ecosystems, he bridges the gap between biology and conservation, turning every trek into a meaningful lesson for preserving our planet.

With over 17 years of experience in environmental education, my work focuses on the design of Living Laboratories. These are pedagogical spaces where the High Andean forest and the Paramos become the classroom. As a biologist and educator, I have specialized in translating complex ecological data into accessible environmental interpretation for diverse audiences, from university students to ecotourists.
