About this statute

This is the opening part of Law 1930 of 2018, which sets out provisions for the integrated management of páramos in Colombia. This article states that páramos are strategic ecosystems and sets policy guidelines for their integrity, preservation, restoration, sustainable use, and knowledge generation. This article sets out principles for protecting páramos, including special protection, sustainable land use, community participation, ecological restoration, and consultation of ethnic communities in relevant projects. This article defines key terms used in the law, including páramo, traditional páramo inhabitants, and a differential approach for their treatment. El Ministerio de Ambiente y Desarrollo Sostenible debe delimitar los páramos con base en el área de referencia y los estudios técnicos, económicos, sociales y ambientales; si se aparta del área de referencia, debe justificarlo con un criterio científico de mayor protección. Las autoridades ambientales regionales deben crear espacios de participación para acordar programas y proyectos sobre actividades prohibidas dentro de páramos ya delimitados.
